THIS IS ME

 ONE MAN, ONE STORY  

As part of the 2027 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Festival, This Is Me is a raw, heartfelt and uplifting journey through one man's life, told through powerful storytelling, humour and music.

Growing up gay in a small town within a Catholic, sporting family, Michael Astill shares his deeply personal journey through childhood bullying, coming out, relationships, domestic abuse, mental health challenges, heartbreak and ultimately finding love, acceptance and happiness.

Accompanied by a full live band and backing vocalists, Michael brings his story to life through unforgettable songs, honest reflections and moments of laughter, vulnerability and celebration.

More than a story of survival, This Is Me is a celebration of resilience, self-discovery and the freedom to live authentically.

One man. One story. A lifetime of experiences.

A powerful reminder that no matter where we begin, we all deserve to be loved for exactly who we are.
