Legendary Australian performer Paul Capsis leaves the characters and costumes behind in his first-ever solo acoustic program up close and unplugged.
Beginning in 1930s Berlin, paying homage to Kurt Weill and John Kander, this gritty musical journey then delves into the depths of despair with music by Richard Rogers, Elton John and Billy Joel influenced by the likes of Marianne Faithfull, Jimmy Scott and Nina Simone.
Moving through to the uplifting jazz and ragtime songs of Melody Gardot and Johnny Mercer, audiences will feel their smiles return once more. Accompanied by Francis Greep on piano, Dry My Tears is an unexpected, intimate recital well deserving of its rave reviews. Francis Greep appears courtesy of The Song Company.
"When a performer can hold an audience in his thrall for over an hour with no mic, no props, just a piano accompaniment and his effervescence, that is a true talent indeed. And that is Paul Capsis."
