Last year ATOM split the adult and the student awards, and pushed the industry side towards networking. So the grown-ups are deprived of shiny-faced children practicing their Oscar smiles, but we do gain hula-hoops and a touch of circus. And a touch of cosmic justice to round out the year.
Hosted by RocKwiz’s Brian Nankervis at Melbourne’s fever burlesque club, Red Bennies, with a live performance from hula-hooping circus entertainer, Anna Lumb, the 31st IPAF ATOM Awards were anything but boring.
