Centrestage Theatre is hosting Sofa Sessions, an evening of live music viewed from the comfort of couches, on Friday April 26.
The event is presented by Stage It, a Stanmore Bay production group that runs the technical side of performances at Centrestage and for schools around the Hibiscus Coast.
This is their sixth Sofa Sessions night, with Stage It founder Scott Gaddes saying they want to keep promoting up and coming talent.
“We want to create a platform for young artists in the area to showcase their talents,” he says.
The artists get full autonomy on what they perform, although Scott says they tend to choose music from “chill” genres like jazz and RnB.
The majority of the line-up is talent from Centrestage and includes Geena Hutton and Euan Lindsay, who have performed as a singer and guitar duo at all six Sofa Sessions.
“People come just to see them perform,” Scott says. “They are our iconic duo.”
Other talent includes newcomers Zaverr Docter and Carlin Diprose.
The four-and-a-half hour event also has a bar and snacks available.
Sofa Sessions starts at 7pm and entry is by donation. Info: SOFA Sessions April 2019 on Facebook.
