Overview
Think feeling nostalgic about epic songs is the only way to spend your evenings, Brisbanites? Think again. Given the trauma of 2016, showing your love for the artists we've lost is an urge we all just keep scratching. Combine it with a right royal goodbye and good riddance to the year in question, and you have the New Globe Theatre's latest event.
The name RIP 2016 says all it needs to, really. In typical NG style, there'll be clips on the big screen, dancing in the aisles — and local music and cabaret talent celebrating their fallen heroes as well. That's how you farewell David Bowie, Prince, Leonard Cohen, George Michael, Alan Rickman, Carrie Fisher and more, en masse. Sadly, you know that the list of dearly departed pop culture figures that the night will honour doesn't stop there.
Want more opportunities to pay tribute? Well, this is the weekend for it. RIP 2016 isn't the only shindig of its type on January 20, with a Leonard Cohen-focused evening happening over at The Brightside. Then, head to Bistrotheque on January 21 for a bit of David Bowie action.
