The New Year is just around the corner and so is the start of the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre's (DRTCC) 2022 season with the first performance just over a month away.
Looking for a last-minute Christmas gift? Tickets are available now for At The Crossroads - a cabaret concert described as both funny and moving, and features music from some of the world's most loved musicals including The Phantom of the Opera, The Sound of Music, Les Miserables, Man of La Mancha and many others.
The concert features and is co-written by Dale Burridge who has returned to the stage after an absence of more than 20 years. He is best known to audiences as the original Raoul in the 1990 Australian premiere production of The Phantom of the Opera. Mr Burridge will be accompanied by Beverley Kennedy on piano and Mark Szeto on double bass.
"This is the perfect performance to launch our 2022 season," said DRTCC Manager Linda Christof. "It is a magnificently crafted performance with song, music, storytelling and humour that flows effortlessly.
"We are presenting it as a late afternoon matinee for those who prefer a daytime concert but will also satisfy those who want a night out as you can stroll to the many local restaurants after the performance to extend your theatre experience."
The show's opening night in Melbourne brought rave reviews from Australian Stage, which said; 'Hands down, Dale Burridge has one of Australia's best musical theatre voices', and 'Burridge nails them all; his rich voice hitting truly extraordinary notes that only a highly practiced and developed artist can produce'.
"Burridge will send shivers up your spine with his sheer vocal brilliance, have you laughing your socks off and you'll need some tissues too," said Ms Christof. "Tickets are an ideal Christmas gift, they can be bought individually or as part of our subscription package."
