Rhonda Burchmore Brings RUDE AWAKENING to Slide Tonight

By:

Rhonda Burchmore's first ever intimate Sydney show "RUDE AWAKENING" is set for tonight 31 May 2013 at Slide Lounge, Darlinghurst.

Try taking your eyes off this dazzling performer for one moment...we dare you! This May at Slide, we invite you to embark on an audacious journey with Rhonda through the highs and lows of her remarkable career. From television to the big screen, musical theatre to opera, cabaret to the stage, there are few entertainment mediums that multi award winning Rhonda Burchmore has not embraced.

Says Rhonda, "I've never even done an 'up close and intimate' show in Sydney, ever in my life. Usually I am in town to do the big productions. But what a fabulous venue to do 'Rhonda Unplugged' - it'll be like Rhonda after a few champagnes at a dinner party; all my guards let down. That's why it's called Rude Awakening - it's a Rhonda that not many people see - unleashed".

Rhonda will be backed by musicians Hugh Fraser on Double Bass, and piano legend Ray Aldridge.

Slide's Live Entertainment Producer Jeremy Brennan says that "Rhonda's first ever appearance at Slide is a truly exciting proposition. We have seen such growth in the cabaret scene in Sydney. Having a schedule that includes artists of Rhonda's calibre is certainly testament to the quality of our 'little' venue. We are soon to announce the lineup for our cabaret festival in June with some amazing interstate and overseas artists as well as some of our favourite local performers."

Join us for an intimate evening with one of Australia's most beautiful rogues... It's not your usual high-kick routine; it's a RUDE AWAKENING.
