Born in the sequins and discotheque dust of the Adelaide Fringe Festival in 2015, the international Australian success story returns to theatres around Australia in a new, reinvented production that continues the extravaganza of music, dance and circus.
Velvet has always been a nightclub, a state of mind, a fantasy... and in the new world of Velvet Rewired, director Craig Ilott has reworked his magic to transform the production into a fresh, new, sparkling vision of dreams, life, and fulfillment!
Join the iconic Marcia Hines and a dazzling array of performers for an exhilarating night of glitz, glamour, and jaw-dropping circus skills. This winning combination of disco, dance, and circus offers a night at the theatre for all ages and all tastes. From death-defying acrobatics and trickery to naughty costumes and laugh-out-loud comedy, the show packs more entertainment into one night than a 12-month Netflix subscription!
Velvet Rewired is a luscious love letter to disco, and you don't want to miss it!

Packaged foods and cold drinks purchased at any of our theatre bars can be taken into the auditorium during the performance.
Hot drinks, glass and unpackaged foods will not be admitted into the auditorium.
