SUMMARY:The Knitting Pilgrim
DESCRIPTION:The Knitting Pilgrim\nCo-written by Kirk Dunn and Claire Ross Dunn\, Performed by Kirk Dunn \nMeet Kirk – actor\, writer\, knitter\, and PK (Preacher’s Kid). Prompted by the events of 9/11\, Kirk Dunn knit a huge triptych of tapestries\, each 2.8m tall by 1.6m wide\, designed as stained-glass windows\, exploring the commonalities and conflicts of the Abrahamic faiths. What he expected would take 10 months ended up taking him 15 years to complete! \nIn a show that is all about knitting and not about knitting at all\, Kirk looks at the rise of Islamophobia\, anti-Semitism\, and fear of ‘the other’. He delves into the fascinating story of his 15-year journey knitting the tapestries\, his artistic path of self-doubt\, financial despair\, theological questioning and the value of a loving partner who is willing to be a butt-kicking muse. \nYou’ll laugh\, cry\, and even participate in a little bit of knitting yourself as Kirk celebrates diversity\, interfaith understanding\, and the power of art to get us there. This multi-media spectacular includes one-of-a-kind fibre art woven together with modern creative tech and human performance art. This show is for knitters\, students of theology\, admirers of all types of visual\, performance\, and multi-media art\, and anyone participating in the human experience. You do NOT have to know anything about knitting to enjoy this show – but you might walk away as a converted knitter yourself! \n \n\n*Youth and Student Admission – $28.25*								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n									\n					\n						\n						\n							\n									Tickets
