Back by popular demand — get ready to revel in the golden age of variety television once more as two small-screen veterans with big personality team up to recreate Channel 9’s Adelaide Tonight.
First airing in 1959, South Australia’s first live TV show catapulted local talent into the limelight. Now, 19-time Logie winner Anne ‘Willsy’ Wills joins Countdown and Mardi Gras icon Bob Downe for one hilarious hour of live, tea-time entertainment with a cabaret twist. Featuring an ever-changing line-up of fabulous artists and quick-witted comedy that will have you rolling in the aisles, Adelaide Tonight is a raucous reinvention of TV history.
Rizo has been described as Edith Piaf meets Freddie Mercury a Grammy Award-winning chanteuse with an electrifying stage presence, master of glamour, seduction and her own voice.
Her joyful, sensorial, combustible mix of rock and roll bravado, vintage pop diva and comedic antics has earned a cult following across the United States and the world.
Immerse yourself in an evening of light and colour as she holds the beauty and sorrow of life in her tiny hands.
