Chelsea Byrne: My Queer Spiritual Entropy

Holly Rowan and The Wilderbeans are a dynamic performing quattro of non-binary artists from Naarm, beholding a niche pic-n-mix of creative flairs. Their collective art is categorised by cross-pollination and play, and they have gathered to tell you some epic tales of queer folks and their evolving relationship with the world, through physical theatre, original music and live-mixed animation.

Holly Rowan and The Wilderbeans aims to bring their immersive, multi-artform theatre production, My Queer Spiritual Entropy, to new audiences at a series of festivals in 2025. The inclusive performance celebrates and educates about the complexities of gender identity, particularly non-binary experience, through a Trans Ecology lens.

This project aims to promote acceptance, resilience and foster greater understanding and connection within and beyond the LGBTIQ+ community as well as to build community around “Holly Rowan and The Wilderbeans” for future engagement and opportunities.
