QPAC

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

Fran Lebowitz is renowned for her razor-sharp commentary, biting realism and unapologetic observations.

Returning with An Evening with Fran Lebowitz, the star of Martin Scorsese’s hit Netflix documentary series Pretend It’s a City unleashes her chain-smoking, coffee-drinking New Yorker bite on a world falling ever more deeply into depravity, sucked along in the wake of Trump 2.0.

Divinely judgemental, no matter is too great – or too small – for Fran’s baleful glare. Fran’s is an unwavering dedication to justice that has seen her portray judges in Law & Order and in The Wolf of Wall Street: roles she does not consider to be acting.

Weaving a cautionary tale for our society, and never short of an opinion – from politicians to AI and people who walk too slowly to billionaires – Fran has for decades lambasted the abhorrent and ridiculous with wit and wisdom in equal measure.

Come for the candour, stay for the cynicism – and leave vastly more entertained.

Fran Lebowitz will be joined on stage by journalist and screenwriter, Benjamin Law.

The Q&A will be conducted entirely via Slido. Questions will be submitted through your smartphone to ensure everyone can participate and be heard.
