The Illusionist – Seraphim Trio – Elder Hall – 5 May
By Ben Nielsen What better way to spend an overcast Sunday afternoon than with the Seraphim Trio. In their second concert series of 2013, the ensemble paid homage to the ‘magician of sounds’, Maurice Ravel.

ADELAIDE FRINGE 2013 – All Washed Up! – 4K

FRINGE – Sister Mary Lucy – La Boheme – 4K
By Ben Nielsen After a successful season at the 2012 Cabaret Fringe Festival, it’s unsurprising that Lucy Russell returns with her show Sister Mary Lucy. With an onstage shrine and a well selected jukebox of songs, Russell confesses that her one desire is to become a nun. The tale is genuinely hilarious. Unlike many emerging …
