THOM PAIN (based on nothing) by Will Eno is a one-man show by Will Eno. It is a 2004 solo work that has been performed around the world, translated into over a dozen languages, and was a finalist for the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. In a rambling, hilarious, and heartbreakingly honest monologue, Thom Pain shares stories of a bee sting, a boy and his dog, and a tumultuous encounter with love, exploring the absurd, the painful, and the ordinary moments that make life extraordinary. Critics have called it “dazzling,” “treasured,” and “speechless in any case,” a meditation on disappointment, futility, and the fragile beauty of human experience. Joey Minogue takes the stage, producing and starring in this deeply personal, intimate work. A rare chance to experience one of the most acclaimed monologues of the 21st century, performed live in the bold, supportive space of The Mill.

From elegant Shiraz and vibrant Tempranillo to delicate Pinots and crisp Rieslings, this event is all about discovering new favourites while enjoying a relaxed, social atmosphere.
Join us for our free Canberra and Region Heritage Festival glassblowing demonstration with artist Katie-Ann Houghton! This year's Heritage Festival celebrates mid-century innovation through studio glass, a field defined by experimentation and creativity. Visitors can watch live glassblowing demonstrations of mid-century inspired light fixtures, make their own slumped glass tealight holders in hands-on kilnforming workshops, or take a guided heritage tour and see parts of the old Kingston Powerhouse – usually off-limits to visitors. The Powerhouse opened in 1915 to provide coal fired electricity to the new city of Canberra. It was permanently decommissioned in 1957 and in 2007 the building was converted into the Canberra Glassworks, turning industrial heritage into a vibrant hub for contemporary craft. This demonstration provides an opportunity to observe contemporary glass practice in action within an active studio environment, revealing the timing, skill, and collaboration behind the finished work.
