Prospero Arts: Dusty The Musical – In Concert
5 June @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm AEST

Dusty The Musical – In Concert, presented by Prospero Arts, is the celebration and retelling of the extraordinary life and music of British icon, Dusty Springfield, one of pop music’s greatest female stars, whose riveting journey was full of highs, lows, triumph and tragedy.
In the 1960s, Dusty took the world by storm with her revolutionary sensual soul singing, and for more than sixty years, her music has reached out across generations with a score of hits including “I Only Want To Be With You”, “Wishin’ and Hopin’”, “The Look of Love”, “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me”, “I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself” and “Son of a Preacher Man”.
Dusty, the product of Australian writers John-Michael Howson, David Mitchell and Melvyn Morrow, received rave reviews for both its Australian National Tour in 2006, and again with Melbourne’s Production Company in 2016, with the story of the introverted Londoner, Mary O’Brien, who defies the odds to transform herself to become a legend, synonymous with the 60s era.
