The widely loved journalist and documentary maker Louis Theroux has announced his first ever Australian appearance, heading to Melbourne on a speaking tour of the country.
The show will see Theroux reflect on his years of film making in conversation with Julia Zemiro. The intimate dialogue will draw on footage from his watershed Weird Weekends series, as well as his experiences dealing with everyone from white supremacy groups, to encounters with celebrities and the criminally insane.
Inspired by previous Q&A sessions held in Britain, Theroux will discuss his working methods and how he navigates danger, as well as following up on the lives of those he has documented throughout his career. Featuring previously unseen footage, the two-hour event will unpack his vast discography of critically acclaimed and popular documentaries.
He’ll appear at Hamer Hall on Sunday September 25. Tickets through Louis Theroux Live, available from March 21.
