Gabi Barton

Gabi (she/her) is a performer, choreographer and community arts enthusiast born and based in Naarm/Melbourne. She has provided exuberant entertainment at arts and music festivals across the globe, presenting her work in theatres, dive bars, dungeons, rural halls, suburban football fields, upon moving buses, caravans, speedboats and an East German fishing ship. Whether wrangling avid throngs of naked racers at Meredith Music Festival or engaging in existential dialogue with live psychic hotlines in the bowels of the Arts Centre Melbourne, her approach is unwaveringly lateral, idiosyncratic and vivid.  

Other performance highlights include creating and presenting work at Midsummer Festival, Mona Foma, Rising, Melbourne Fringe, Sydney Festival, Darwin Festival, Edinburgh Fringe, Dark Mofo, Adelaide Fringe, Castlemaine State Festival, Adelaide Cabaret Festival, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Meredith Music Festival and Big Day Out.
