About
Arrive in your jeans and boots, or your tuxedos and ball gowns. A unique celebration of country music and opera, featuring arias and songs by Puccini, Verdi, Slim Dusty, Troy Cassar-Daly, Dolly Parton and more. A cast of young Australian singers are set to perform with soaring harmonies, masterful musicianship and an irresistible energy. Returning for a third season, Are You Lonesome Tonight is Opera Queensland’s most successful regional tour in its 40-year history, and marks the company’s first national tour. In 2026, this foot-stomping production comes to Brisbane Festival for five performances in the iconic Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent, at the heart of Festival Village in South Bank.
