Smash-Hit VELVET Returns to Sydney in Three Weeks

Following rave reviews and audience acclaim across the country, the ARIA nominated and award-winning hit show VELVET is due to return to Sydney in three weeks' time, for a strictly limited season. Playing at the Roslyn Packer Theatre from 26 July, Sydney audiences will once more be able to catch this gem of a show, with tickets available from ticketmaster.com.au.

Director Craig Ilott has created a hedonistic world, pitting dazzling acrobatics against disco divas as this sexy, spectacular, sparkling and slightly sadomasochistic show channels the original Studio 54 nightclub. The international ensemble of circus, cabaret and music talent includes legendary diva Marcia Hines, actor/singer Tom Oliver (who plays the young ingénue who slips behind the red velvet rope at the glamorous nightclub that is VELVET), dreamy muscle man Stephen Williams, hula boy extraordinaire Craig Reid, acrobatic wunderkind Mirko Köckenberger, sizzling aerialist Emma Goh, and Kaylah Attard and Rechelle Mansour as the two sassy sirens, alongside musical director and mix master Joe Accaria.

VELVET shocks, surprises and scintillates at every turn. It's a party, it's electrifying, and its exhilarating disco soundtrack never lets up from the opening moment. Each performance invites the audience into an intoxicating glitterball world where the performers and the audience walk the fine line between the romantic and the audacious. VELVET is a fantastic sensory overload - funky, fresh, fun and sexy.
