A Night With Uncle Jack
• Storytelling
South Australia
Uncle Jack Charles is an actor, musician, potter, and gifted performer, but in his 78 years he has also been homeless, a heroin addict, a thief, and a regular in Victoria’s prisons. A member of the Stolen Generation, Jack has spent his life in-between acting gigs, caught in the ‘addiction/crime/doing time’ cycle. Today, overcoming these past struggles, Uncle Jack is here to share tales published in his 2019 biography Jack Charles: A Born-again Blakfella.
Includes short interval.
