Mad Jazz
Mad Max like you've never heard it before.
Overview
Listen up, all you fuel-injected suicide machines, as The Road Warrior tears down Chapel Street to the sounds of experimental jazz. For one night only, the big screen at Melbourne's iconic Astor Theatre will light up with George Miller's 1979 genre-defining masterpiece Mad Max, accompanied by a brand new live score by futurist jazz ensemble The Shaolin Afronauts. Prepare to experience this cult classic in a whole new way.
Presented by Stonnington Jazz, the madness is set to go down at 8pm on Tuesday May 17. Dubbed Mad Jazz, the night will see the celebrated South Australian jazz outfit perform a wholly original score, tailor made for Miller's dystopian outback world. If you dug Fury Road last year, go back and discover where it all began. Just try not to think about what Mel Gibson has become since '79.
