Disco Wonderland β Dancing Til Dawn
βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ1/2
A shimmering musical sensation that will have you smiling from start to finish, bopping in your chair, singing along, and dancing (yay to finally being able to dance again)!
Disco Wonderland transports us to the era of New York nightclub Studio 54, with all the groovy sequins and hot pants, in a glittering feast.
Talented former Australian Idol singer Paulini, headlines the show with the smooth moving singer-dancer Timomatic (from Australiaβs Got Talent and So You Think You Can Dance). They are joined by talented South Australian performers Philippa Lynas, Mark Stefanoff and Amelia Sanzo, along with local band Er@ser Description.
The singers all shine with powerhouse vocals in solos and duets, ballads, mashups and dynamic dance numbers, with some fabulous highlights. Lynas gets the party started with a glamorous strong opening. Paulini hits all the right notes in a soulful version of βMacArthur Parkβ and a jazzy βI Will Surviveβ. Timomatic aces a Jacksonβs medley; Stefanoff sings and swings effortlessly on an aerial hoop to βYoung Hearts Run Freeβ. Accomplished dancer Sanzo weaves the story together, bringing all the groove to the 70s dance floor vibe, with choreography by Brendan Yeates (Hamilton, West Side Story, Matilda). There are some sexy dance moves (it is a nightclub scene after all), including a dance duet with a shirtless Timomatic, but itβs still within the parameters of the family friendly time slot of the 6.20pm evening show and 12.30pm matinees, and is rated PG.
Other songs include βShake Your Groove Thingβ, βIf You Could Read My Mindβ, βStayinβ Aliveβ; βThatβs the Way (I Like It)β; βLove Donβt Live Here Anymoreβ; βLove to Love You Babyβ and βBlame it on the Boogieβ. A shout out to the talented musicians as well for their non-stop brilliant performance.
The energy of the show is infectious and the audience donβt need to be asked twice to get up and boogie with old favourites like βYMCAβ and βWe are Familyβ.
Disco Wonderland is a musical treat thatβs a huge bundle of fun, and is sure to put you in a good mood. It would be hard not to have a good time.
Presented by Andrew Kay and Release Creative, itβs showing at The Peacock at Gluttony (indoor tent, no mask required) until 21 March 2021.
