Sydney Festival: Deborah Conway & Willy Zygier
21 January @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm AEDT
Deborah Conway is one of Australia’s most iconic musicians. She broke out in 80s pop outfit Do-Ré-Mi, whose smash hit Man Overboard became a feminist anthem, and went solo with her debut album String of Pearls, which yielded the classic single “It’s Only the Beginning”. She’s since written and recorded ten albums with her guitarist and partner, Willy Zygier.
Based on Conway’s autobiography, Book of Life, this unique music theatre performance sees Conway and Zygier explore their four-decade-long musical careers, told through eight scenes and eight songs.
The pair (mostly) play themselves as they chart a course through their own story of youth, rebellion, falling in love, ageing, money and music – revealing the details of one of the most powerful women to rock the Australian music industry.
