After its success across Regional Queensland in 2021, Are You Lonesome Tonight returns for a highly anticipated national tour.

A celebration of opera and country music, featuring arias and songs by Puccini, Verdi, Slim Dusty, Troy Cassar-Daley, Dolly Parton and more.

Pairing Opera and Country music is not a gimmick; the two genres have a great deal in common. Artists, composers and librettists across both artforms understand the power of storytelling, and feature many common themes of profound love, heartache, and triumph in the face of adversity.
