Corrobaret is a celebration of life, love and laughter.

When David and Stephen Page were kids they often experienced a night of entertainment right in the back yard of their home. Family and relatives would gather for the party celebration of birthdays, weddings or funerals. Out would come the voices, dance moves, guitars and other instruments then Aunties, Uncles, Cousins, Brothers and Sisters would perform. This is where they saw some amazingly talented people and performances. Their childhood memories and experiences are the inspiration for this show. They would love to invite a new audience to the party to witness a traditional celebration with a twist.

Staged in a glamorously stylised backyard setting Corrobaret is performed by five multi-skilled Australian Aboriginal entertainers – who, in a fashionably nomadic style, pass down their authentic oral history of story telling in a modern but characteristic blackfella style. Come and enjoy inspiring tales of Respect, Identity, Love, Heartache, Money and Success (and sometimes the lack of) woven magically together with dance, a nostalgic list of songs from the 1940’s, Motown, Funk, Disco, Country and Western, Rock and Pop music and stunning vocal accompaniment.

This is Corrobaret - a roaming meeting place that will take you on a unique and theatrical journey that explores the emotions of real life Australian experiences told by real life Australian characters.
