OBSERVER: A Day With James Joyce’s Ulysses
Bloomsday in Melbourne presents A Day With James Joyce’s Ulysses – The Infamous Circe Episode on Sunday, April 6 from 10am to 4.30pm at 3ZZZ Melbourne Ethnic Community Radio, Brunswick.
Presented by Associate Professor Frances Devlin-Glass, the Artistic Director of Bloomsday in Melbourne and Dr Steve Carey, this event is a fundraiser for Bloomsday in Melbourne, enabling payment for the director, actors and staff for Bloomsday theatrical productions.
And the Circe episode of Ulysses is the subject of Bloomsday in Melbourne’s 2025 theatrical production, Circe’s Carnival of Vice, at fortyfivedownstairs in Melbourne, opening June 12.
The focus on April 6 will be on the ‘astonishing’ episode of Ulysses, Circe (episode 15).
The day long workshop will be interactive, a mix of presentation and discussion of text. The presenters assume no prior knowledge of Ulysses – although if you do already have some experience of Ulysses, and have even read Episode 15, Circe, that’d certainly enrich your experience, of course.
Afterwards, all interested can head to Hotel Railway for a chat and drink..
