The second edition of Open Season breathed life back into Brisbane's performing arts scene, showcased Brisbane's reputation as a dynamic and creative city. The announcement of the 2021 Open Season line-up coincided with the re-launch of The Princess following a complete refurbishment and gorgeous fit-out of this historic 133-year-old heritage building. The Princess Theatre, now a sister venue to The Tivoli, was launched as Brisbane’s newest home for live music and the arts in Woolloongabba’s emerging lifestyle and entertainment precinct.
True to the brand of the iconic Tivoli, live music again remained at the heart of the Open Season program with a stunning program of artists and musicians handpicked to perform across both venues.
“Culture and community are at the core of The Princess Theatre’s rebirth and including it in our Open Season program, in collaboration with Brisbane Festival, allows us to very visibly redefine its identity to help cement its place in Brisbane’s cultural ecology. Open Season gives us the freedom and agency to set our creative tone of The Princess right from the beginning, giving our audiences an indication as to who we are, what our vibe is and what we want our future to look like.” Dave Sleswick, Creative Director
