About the event
ACAS is excited to present New Zealand Poet Laureate Chris Tse reading a selection of his poems written during his time as Poet Laureate that focus on how we capture and express joy, particularly during times of crisis and uncertainty. Local poets will so join Chris on stage to add local voices to this special evening.
Chris Tse is a New Zealand poet, short story writer and editor. His works explore questions of identity, including his Chinese heritage and queer identity. Tse was named New Zealand’s 13th Poet Laureate (2022-2025).
Chris Tse is brought to Queenstown by ACAS and Queenstown Writers Festival.
Tickets are limited and only available on Eventfinda.
