Perth Concert Hall to host An Evening with Peter Singer

Australian philosopher and author Peter Singer is heading to Western Australia for a show at Perth Concert Hall on Friday, July 21.

Presented by Think Inc., An Evening with Peter Singer will explore Professor Peter Singer’s vast body of work, from animal liberation to effective altruism, including his latest book Animal Liberation Now. 

Since the release of Animal Liberation in 1975, Singer has been a leading advocate for animal rights and has inspired a worldwide movement to eliminate cruelty towards nonhuman animals. In Animal Liberation Now, Singer revisits and updates his seminal work, exposing the realities of modern factory farming and product testing procedures, and offering alternatives to the environmental and social impacts of animal agriculture.

Singer’s work goes beyond animal rights. He is also a prominent figure in the effective altruism movement, advocating for individuals to use their resources to maximise their positive impact on the world. His other works include The Life You Can Save, which challenges readers to consider how they can best use their resources to alleviate global poverty, and Ethics in the Real World, a collection of essays covering a wide range of ethical issues.

An Evening with Peter Singer hits Perth Concert Hall on Friday, July 21, 2023. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, March 15 from perthconcerthall.com.au
