OLD FRIENDS SING SONDHEIM

OLD FRIENDS SING SONDHEIM

The sold out Sydney dinner and cabaret show, now coming to the FunHaus Factory in Gosford!

“Absolutely hilarious!” - GINA RILEY

“A wonderful, funny show about friendship” - ALAN CUMMING

Old Friends MARK TREVORROW, RUPERT NOFFS and BEV KENNEDY have much in common. Great musicianship and their love of Stephen Sondheim’s extraordinary songbook. The talented trio have both combined to sing and play up a storm in their Sondheim celebration cabaret show, OLD FRIENDS!

"Bob Downe’s not invited, he says, but a smirk here and a gurgling laugh remind us of his alter ego. It’s a great opportunity to confirm his talent as a cabaret performer and an elegant singer… He has the audience right where he wants them”
— SAMELA HARRIS, Adelaide Advertiser
