Celebrating our pioneering women of Aussie Pop & Rock

Written By Amelia Ryan

On a hot summer’s day in 1965, Merle Thornton and Rosalie Bogner walked into the public bar of the Regatta Hotel in Brisbane, calmly chained themselves to the bar rail, and ordered a beer. What happened next would change the course of Australian history – and a little less obviously – the course of music in Australia for women, forever.

Join award-winning cabaret powerhouses, Amelia Ryan and Libby O’Donovan, in a rollicking, raucous celebration of the original Australian Rock Divas. In both a ‘vibrant and vital’ (The Adelaide Advertiser) exploration of life in the 1960’s, hear the thoroughly entertaining stories and songs that blazed the trails for generations of women to come. Hear the likes of Lynne Randell, Little Patti, Judy Stone, Marcie Jones, Margret Roadknight, Wendy Saddington, and Alison McCallum, in an uplifting homage that brings these incredible women – and their music – out of the sidelines, and into their rightful place in Aussie music history!

Together these women will leave you breathless and shouting for more!
