Murder Ballads
A theatrical performance of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' haunting 1996 album.
Overview
It has been twenty years since Kylie Minogue crooned "they called me the wild rose" and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds released one of their best albums. However, you can't just shower affection on something as haunting and evocative as Murder Ballads any old way. You have to do it justice.
A bunch of musicians and singers plan to do just that for Wonderland 2016 — and while it might seem as though they'll just be offering up their version of the record, there's surely a reason that this one-off performance has been dubbed music theatre. There's more than a little theatricality in Cave's lyrics and the band's songs, of course, but we think audiences should expect something extra special.
