DESCRIPTION:
Brass Bedlam's Festival show premiered at the 2012 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Highly enjoyed by all, it received a four star review from the Herald Sun. "You know you're in the company of professionals when four babies unanimously burst into tears at the opening note of the show and the performers don't bat an eyelid.
Musicians Bernie Hickey and Katy Addis have been working with and playing for children for a long time -- and it shows.
While very youngest attendees may have been startled by the noise, Play That Junky Music! bridges the generation gap, bringing smiles and laughter to faces of every audience member, regardless of age.
Audience participation is a focus of the show, but be warned -- being a grown-up doesn't exempt you from taking part.
The talented duo turn op-shop junk into funny-sounding instruments but when they have proper brass instruments in their hands their real musical talents shine."
