This June
Tina is called upon to help sort out another seemingly
unsolvable situation. Following on from her global healing
post 9/11, and the oil she poured on troubled waters in
Northern Ireland (“Some people see something divided in two,
I just see the craic” Tina C. 2005), Tina turns her
attention to the Aboriginal issue in Australia. www.adelaidecabaret.com Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word (World Premiere) With the legs of a supermodel and a brain to match, superstar Nashville diva Tina C returns to Adelaide with one thing on her mind - Reconciliation between the Indigenous and Non-Indigenous people of Australia through the healing power of music. Not just any music...Australian Country Music. Through the warm story- telling and celebration of human spirit that is so integral to country music, and with her razor-sharp wit that she is hoping will carry her to the White House in 2008, Tina C will use Australian Country Music to guide you through a minefield of issues into a world of better understanding where everyone harmonises on "I'm a Little Bit Country, I'm A little Bit Aboriginal". With special guest, Auriel Andrew, a legend of the Australian country music scene and first Aboriginal woman on Australian TV, Tina C invites you to leave your prejudices at the door and join with her in singing “You Built a Rabbit-Proof Fence Around Your Heart”. “Rousingly political, yet achingly funny, impeccably attuned to the nuances of her powerful subject matter and a damn fine C&W singer. We were in tears and a little bit in love with her, too.” The Age (Melbourne) |
