A different format
for this night – a lively band and a comedy theatre company. Nice
Verdes - Indie World Troubadours- performing and Travelling together
since 2003. Drawing from the sounds of Cuba, Africa, Colombia and more
to create their own style of Rootsy Highlife.They have performed in
Australia, Canada, Colombia,New Zealand, Europe and Guatemala. Having
released three albums, Succulence’ in 2008, ‘Brontosaurus in 2014
and ‘ Bouquet of birds’ in 2016 and are set to release their 4th
this year. The music of Nice Verdes is uplifting and sunny, with
combinations of Cuban Tres, accordions, guitar, harmonica and vocal
harmonies. Triple J review: “Nice Verdes have a fresh approach to
the piano accordion and guitar. Playing uplifting songs with a world
beat influence. Having travelled studying and playing music they bring
to the stage a new fusion of traditional
songs.”_____________________________________________________________

performing sketches for around 23 years. We are not professional
actors or writers, but over the years the members of Subtle Bricks
have come from a wide range of backgrounds: students, teachers,
nurses, toolmakers, ministers, civil engineers . . . even a funeral

faith, for performing and working together to create something good.
Our purpose in this is twofold: to make people think, and to make
people laugh!
