Pecan Summer tickets now ON SALE!


I am so excited to inform you that tickets are now ON SALE for the Melbourne season of Australia’s first Indigenous Opera, PECAN SUMMER presented by Short Black Opera Company.

Again the story of young Alice created by the incomparable Deborah Cheetham will have audiences spellbound mesmerised and yearning for more. Since the World Premier of this Yorta Yorta story on Country last October, as seen in the documentary on ABC Message Stick and broadcast on ABC Classic FM audiences have been demanding it tour the country. This will be your only chance in 2011 to experience this breathtaking Australian Opera.

Deborah has been working tirelessly to remount this production for the Melbourne season and continues to work closely with all of the cast in their operatic/vocal development. This year will include a few new talents that Deborah has discovered in her travels.

For me, this journey is incredible and continues to surpass all of my expectations - weekly. At present, I am working with phenomenal vocal teacher, Raymond Connell who is taking my voice to heights I never dreamed. I am so looking forward to performing at the Playhouse in The Arts Centre, here in Melbourne and showing you all, how far I have come.

You are not going to regret your investment to come to Melbourne in September 28-30 and see this amazing production. Do let me know which night you are attending so that we can catch up after the show. ;)

Thank you for your continued support. Don
