BAREFACED STORIES

REFRESHINGLY HONEST. BOLD. AND BRUTALLY FRANK.

You wouldn't believe what happens in a state that's four times the size of Texas but with less than 3 million people rattling around in it. All that space, where no-one can hear you scream, or laugh, or cry. Shit happens here (with a very Australian accent). Barefaced Stories are the true stories told by people raised under a chroma blue sky, on powdery white beaches, in aqua-clear waters and occasionally, deep down in the dirt - some are humourous, some are sad and some downright perverse.

Created in 2010 by performers Andrea Gibbs and Kerry O’Sullivan (“the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers of Australian storytelling” – Richard Fidler ABC Radio), Barefaced Stories is honest, risk-taking, refreshing entertainment that hits the spot.

#03: Families: They're All Relative

Andrew Hale maxes out his credit card and dives headfirst into the Amazon jungle to drink ayahuasca with a shaman. What follows is an off-the-rails, no-holds-barred trip loaded with hallucinations, existential dread, buckets (yep, real buckets), and a mind-blowing answer that flips everything he thought he knew about himself.

First told back in 2013 at The Bird—a night themed When Two Become One—Andrew’s story is Barefaced to the core: raw, funny, weird, and all too human. After over a decade of jaw-dropping, laugh-out-loud, and heart-punch storytelling, Barefaced Stories is still doing what it does best—bringing Australia’s wildest, realest voices to the stage and beyond.

Hit play, buckle up, and get ready for a story that’s as chaotic as it is unforgettable.

Andrew Hale: Into the Ayahuasca

Looking for love, Lyndal Wilson signed up for a ‘Conscious Relationship’ course—and found herself in a spiritual circus of woodchoppers, scream therapy, and awkward dance-offs. Hilarious, raw, and unexpectedly profound, Lyndal’s story reveals the perils of pop psychology and the power of walking away with your sanity (and a silly hat).

Told at Barefaced Stories under the theme No Pressure, No Diamonds, this gem kicks off Season 5 of the Barefaced Stories podcast.
