Victim of Trend Season: Wednesday 12 - Saturday 15 May Time: 9.30pm Tickets: $15 full/ $12 concession Jamie Bowen (last seen in Gary) 2004 Billy T Nominee presents Victim of Trend: an hilarious, original, in-depth look at today¹s modern culture, where God is The TV, The Internet, and The CD Player. And who better to talk about the evolution of society into suckers than a self-confessed sucker himself? Jamie's first solo show is edgy, topical and ultimately: funny. He dives head first into his own world in an effort to shed some light on this uber-cool, eclectic mass. It¹s a mocumentary with a real topic, a piss-take of real people. It¹s a thigh slapping good time. This show will definitely be better than your last really bad night out.
