Overview
When the Sydney Fringe Festival rolls around, you know you're in for experiences that are both weird and wonderful, with an abundance of extravagance found all across town.
A wonderful experience is exactly what you can expect from History of House, an electrifying event that will be held inside Sydney Spiegeltent in the Entertainment Quarter from Friday, August 30 to Sunday, September 29 as part of Sydney Fringe Festival's Spiegeltent Festival Garden program.
History of House is a collaborative exploration of the history of dance music led by ARIA-nominated DJ Groove Terminator and the three-time Grammy-winning Soweto Gospel Choir, a world-famous South African choir that has performed with the likes of Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder.
Throughout the course of the evening, they'll take you on a trip through the best tunes of the 70s right up to the 00s, from CHIC's 'Le Freak' to Eurythmics' 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' and Whitney Houston's 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)'. Staying still in your seat will be a challenge.
Shows will run every Thursday through to Sunday. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, Soweto Gospel Choir will perform Hope, an all-new concert featuring music penned during Nelson Mandela's South African freedom movement and Martin Luther King's 1950s American Civil Rights Movement. It includes the works of James Brown, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin.
History of House will run Thursday through Sunday at Sydney Spiegeltent from August 30–September 29. Visit the website for more information or to book tickets.
