Summer concert: Brett Brown
 

To sleep perchance to dream

Following the sell-out success of Postcards in the 2017 Resonate series, award-winning Australian actor and baritone Brett Brown returns to the Art Gallery of NSW to premiere his classical-cabaret To sleep perchance to dream. He will once again be accompanied by pianist Glenn Amer and violinist Judy Hellmers.

Dream with Brett through the mysteries of the night from the sublime to the surreal. See visions of Vivaldi’s vengeance, spectres of Saint-Saens’ spirits and treasures of Tchaikovsky’s trances.

Brett is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London, and has performed with Opera Australia, the Royal Shakespeare Company and Shakespeare’s Globe and in plays and musicals in London’s West End and theatre festivals around the world.

Doors open 6.30pm
Concert starts 7.00pm

The concert will feature cabaret seating. Please advise of any seating preferences or groups when booking.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.

    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
