DatesSat 8 February 2025

Starts: 7pm

Price: $25 - $45

Andrea Kirwin and her band are bringing the Tracy Chapman Tribute show to Lismore's Star Court Theatre presented by Peace Run Records and Agency.
 
Most of us have a story about the first time we discovered Tracy Chapman's music. For some of us it was driving on a road trip and hearing 'Talking bout a Revolution', or 'Fast Car' being played on the radio, for others we bought the vinyl record or cassette in the late 80s. For Australian/Fijian singer-songwriter Andrea Kirwin it was through discovering Tracy's debut album in her big brother's cd collection as a 7 year old in the early 90s. From that moment Andrea was intrigued and amazed at the voice she heard singing the songs in her bedroom in Townsville, QLD and back then she had no idea how Tracy's legacy would help shape her into the musician she is today.

Featuring a captivating central performance from Babylon Berlin star Liv Lisa Fries, the hugely affecting new historical drama from multi award-winning director Andreas Dresen depicts the remarkable true story of a young German woman drawn into the anti-Nazi resistance movement during World War II.

When the shy, heavily-pregnant Hilde Coppi (Fries) is suddenly detained by the Gestapo, she pleads ignorance to their accusations that she has aided her lover, Hans (Johannes Hegemann), in transcribing coded radio transmissions to and from Moscow. However, it appears there’s more evidence against Hilde than she anticipated, given Hans and many of the other activists involved in their group – who will become known as Die Rote Kapelle (“The Red Orchestra”) – have also been arrested.
