About the show Madwoman’s Breakfast. Eat my Bush!
'From Federico Garcia Lorca to Phyllis Diller, from Gloria Steinem to Jerzy Kosinski :
it’s a madwoman’s breakfast! One Australian’s mixmaster of metaphors and emotions about America - opening up a Pandora’s pantry of photos, poetry, quotes and smirks.'

“Stop Howard! Out of Iraq! Eat my Bush!” - 2007 APEC demonstrators, Hyde Park.

About the Madwoman – Cathy Bray has been writing poetry and thinking about America for a very long time. She combines photos of New York with her own poems and every American literary and comic influence she can muster to look at her Australian ambivalence towards America.
