A foot-stomping, heart-stirring performance that bridges two musical worlds

Are You Lonesome Tonight is a unique celebration of country music and opera, featuring arias and songs by Bizet, Verdi, Slim Dusty, Troy Cassar-Daley and Dolly Parton.

Young Australian singers Gabrielle Diaz, Marcus Corowa and Jonathan Hickey perform with soaring harmonies, masterful musicianship and an irresistible energy. Join us for an unforgettable night of music – by the finale, you’ll be on your feet cheering for more!

Come in your shorts and thongs or your tuxedos and ballgowns, this is opera like you’ve never seen it before – bold, adventurous and full of heart.
