Hear Me Roar
 

The Sydney Opera House is hosting a sensational new music event that will bring together some of the greatest songs ever written by women, performed by some of Australia’s leading female artists.

Tickets go on sale at 9am Tuesday 11 September 2018.

In a concert packed full of energy, hear iconic music from Amy Winehouse to Madonna, Dolly Parton to Carole King, Anastasia to Adele, Etta James and Alanis Morissette, culminating in a very special tribute to Aretha Franklin. Expect to hear legendary hit songs like Natural Woman, RESPECT, 9 to 5, Express Yourself, You Oughta Know and the anthem I Am Woman.

Performed by a powerful line-up of Australia’s most talented female singers and artists, including Christine Anu, Tania Doko, Sarah McLeod, Emma Pask, Melinda Schneider and Prinnie Stevens with more to be announced, hear these hit songs sung live with a rocking, all-female eight-piece band, led by the incomparable Tina Harris.

    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    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.
