8am, Sunday morning. Q: What’s wrong? A: You’re not at Bunnings.
It’s the ultimate man-shed. Two acres of timber, tools and trellises, guaranteed to make your man-ovaries ache. It’s a fantasy supermarket where dreams and wobbly bookshelves are made.
Harley Breen has two brothers, they’re both carpenters. He likes going to Bunnings to look at things he could make if they were around to fix them. Perhaps this is Bunnings’ great, dark secret: no one there knows what the hell they’re doing! It is the perfect place to wander around and feel like you’ve got the skills and materials to nail your shit together.
Harley Breen performs I Heart Bunnings: Stories About My Brothers at The Portland Hotel’s Gold Room from March 31 – April 24. It’s at 8.30pm Tuesday – Saturday and 7.30pm on Sundays. Tickets are $18 – $22.50 and available from Ticketmaster online, 1300 660 013 and at the door.
