Hello lovers! Need ideas for a first date, a romance rekindle or fun with friends? Come and hang out with us as we keep our doors open till 8:00pm on a few Fridays from March to July. Laugh, cry and swoon with our Australian Love Stories exhibition and enjoy intimate and surprising events with musicians, artists and poets. Consider us your chaperone! (or enabler, whatever works.)
For our second late night event, join the hair, socks and sly, sonorous sounds of the Spooky Men’s Chorale singing words of affirmation. Always renowned for a combination of Visigothic bravado, absurdist humour and eye-moistening tenderness, the Spookies in middle age, with six albums under their belt, are more masters of their territory than ever before. They will delicately garnish their much loved black-catalogue with further incursions into beauty and stupidity.
But wait! Before that, at 5:30pm take an exhilarating look at love in all its guises in a 30 minute tour of the exhibition with Curator, Sandra Bruce.
The Spooky Men’s Chorale emerged blithering and blinking-eyed from the Blue Mountains of NSW eighteen years ago and armed with no more than their voices, a nice line in deadpan and an ill-matched set of hats, have been gleefully disturbing audiences throughout Australia, NZ and the UK ever since.
