The Rock Show Oz Edition is set to return to The Art House at Wyong in February, after selling out the last time it appeared at the theatre in 2021.
The Rock Show Oz Edition was the last in a long line of rock shows produced by Coralea Cameron and the late rock icon Jon English.
“As Jon passed away before he actually got to perform this show himself we now do the show in his honour, which I think he would be thrilled about,” Cameron said.
“He always loved a full standing ovation – which we invariably get!”
The show features Steve Mulry from the Ted Mulry Gang, along with band members from English’s last rock show, Trilogy of Rock.
“This show celebrates an outstanding repertoire of classic Aussie Rock from the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s,” Cameron said.
“As in previous rock shows, the multi-talented band members all sing, harmonise and swap an amazing array of instruments.”
Steve Mulry is the brother of Ted Mulry from hit ‘70s band the Ted Mulry Gang, and now fronts the reformed original band in his brother’s place.
“I was a big fan of Jon myself, and I remember how he was one of the first to come to the party and help out when Ted became ill,” Mulry said.
“I love every song we get to perform in this show, but I especially love that we are able to remember Jon and Ted.”
The show features hits by Masters Apprentices, Billy Thorpe, the Bee Gees, LRB, Skyhooks, Aussie Crawl, INXS, Angels, JPY, Cold Chisel, Air Supply, Divinyls, Renee Geyer, Russell Morris, Noiseworks, TMG, Stevie Wright, AC/DC, Peter Allen, Choirboys, Black Sorrows, Oils, John Farnham and, of course, Jon English.
“All our previous rock shows, including The Rock Show, Rock Revolution and Trilogy of Rock always sold out,” Cameron said.
“I was so happy when the The Rock Show Oz Edition did too, and that people seemed to enjoy it just as much.”
The Rock Show Oz Edition will be performed at the Wyong Art House on Saturday, February 10, at 8pm.
