OK, so we're putting the Musical on at Sydney the Folk Festival. There will be two performances, on Saturday afternoon at 4pm and Sunday afternoon at 2pm. Now, the way it's set up is that you have to buy a festival ticket, which is $90 full price for the day or $150 for the whole festival. I know we're awesome, but it's better value for money if you see all the other great festival stuff as well as us. Get tickets online beforehand as it will cost more to try to get in on the day.

Sydney the Folk Musical tells the story of Keira and Billy, polar opposites who travel through this much maligned metropolis, starting at the end of the last ice age, through to the present day.

This extravaganza, spanning 10,000 years and 658 suburbs, featuring a live folk band and a Greek Chorus, is performed by a cast full of Morris dancers (from Sydney of course) and filled with songs penned by Clark Gormley.

The show features twelve original songs, which range in style from popular to sea shanty, traditional folk, rap and beyond. Additionally Gormley has adapted several Shape Note hymn tunes from the Sacred Harp tradition, which are sung a cappella by the Greek Chorus.
