The Roaring Twenties

The Roaring Twenties  features singer-actor Melissa Western, a hot band of Brisbane's best musicians and special guests extraordinaire to recreate the "annee folles" (crazy years) of the 1920s. Filled with excess, decadence and hot jazz this is a night where audience members help create the atmosphere by dressing in theme and becoming the speakeasy crowd. Set in cabaret style with the musicians flat on the floor and performers on a custom raised pedestal stage, The Roaring Twenties gives audiences a smoky, authentic experience of twenties hedonism. Hats will be tipped to some of the great icons and composers of the twenties: Josephine Baker, Greta Garbo, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Bessie Smith, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Jelly Roll Morton and more. Inspired by film releases including The Great Gatsby, Midnight in Paris and Chicago this show gives communities the chance to step back in time and taste the delicious fun of twenties music, dance and style.
A drinks and food package is encouraged and could be as simple as wine and cheese available or as extravagant as a cocktail bar and multi-course meal in partnership with local suppliers. Optional extras include mobile photo booth, dance class, pop up styling boutique.
