Perth International Jazz Festival: Dee Dee Bridgewater
27 October @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm AWST

Triple Grammy winner Dee Dee Bridgewater brings four decades of fearless artistry to the Astor Theatre for one unforgettable night.
A Tony Award winner, NEA Jazz Master and internationally celebrated performer, Bridgewater has shared stages with legends including Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Rollins and Max Roach, while carving out her own singular place in jazz history through powerhouse vocals, theatrical flair and boundary-pushing performances.
From Broadway triumphs in The Wiz to Grammy-winning recordings on her own label, DDB Records, Bridgewater remains one of the most dynamic live performers in contemporary jazz.
Joining her is acclaimed pianist Helen Sung, a Guggenheim Fellow whose sophisticated, swinging style has made her one of the leading voices in modern jazz piano.
One night only. Perth International Jazz Festival 2026.
