association with some of the country’s finest talentssuch as Slava Grigoryan,

pliability and tautness of ensemble are impeccable.”

Join us at COPACC for an
intimate evening with the high priestess of Australian pop, Kate Ceberano, and her
musical partner, ARIA and Helpmann Award-winning Paul Grabowsky, on Wednesday,
October 11 at 8pm. They take us on a very personal journey of words and music
with brilliantly stripped back interpretations of some of the greatest love
songs of the past 50 years.
Kate is a cultural
diplomat and national treasure and needs no introduction, while Paul’s
contribution to Australian jazz is huge.
The Herald Sun review of
their show at the Melbourne Recital Centre read: “Their Love Songs concert,
played before a packed house, was joyously alive from the get go. A warm,
heartfelt ode to love lost, found and unrequited.”
RUNNING TIME: 90 minute set

Snappy acting & a fat dose of funny
Award winning choreographer and dancer Shaun Parker brings
Blue Love to COPACC on Friday, October 13 at 8pm. This quirky, character-based
show is a multi-media physical theatre comedy and covers most performing art
genres within 65 minutes! It is a poetic
and satirical take on the clichés of pop culture, romance, coupledom and
suburbia. Parker says: “I was inspired by how romantic love runs through all
art forms…and provides such juicy thematic fodder for artists and audiences
alike…. It’s a topic that everyone knows only too well. In
romantic love the cliché becomes the poignant and vice versa.”
RUNNING TIME: 65 minutes, no interval
RECOMMENDED FOR: People aged 16+
WARNING: Some nudity + strong language
