ELEVATE Art Festival
 

From 12th -13th December, Shopfront Arts Co-op will throw open their doors to celebrate ELEVATE Art Festival a multicultural, multi arts festival at Sydney’s only youth led arts co-operative.  Over two big days, the Festival will feature a line-up of live performances, interactive workshops, an open mic night and art trail, offering guests to experience the very best of Shopfront Arts.

ELEVATE Festival celebrates and showcases the best of local art and artists. Visitors wondering what goes on at Shopfront are invited to take a look through the new Shopfront building, and if they are between the ages 8 – 26, join one of the many free workshops on offer including dance, drama, acting for the stage and more led by Shopfront Artists.

A standout workshop on offer is with in-house resident company Matriark Theatre. In the workshop, budding artists will be able to create their own shadow scapes by experimenting with lights and shadows. Later in the day festival goers can enjoy Shopfront Artist creations including live music and installations across Shopfront spaces and several local Carlton cafes.

ELEVATE Festival is open to the public, and suitable for ages 8 to 88. Full program and bookings for all workshops and performances can be made at

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    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.

    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.
