Since the release of his 2004 critically acclaimed CD ‘When I Fall In Love’, American trumpeter Chris Botti (pronounced boat-tee) is currently the largest selling American jazz instrumental artist. His success has crossed over to audiences usually reserved for pop music and his ongoing association with the Public Broadcasting Service (USA) has led to four #1 Jazz albums, as well as multiple Gold, Platinum and Grammy Awards.

A master artist and performer, Botti has sold nearly three million albums world-wide. Over the past three decades Chris Botti has recorded and performed with the best in music including; Frank Sinatra, Sting, Josh Groban, Michael Buble, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, John Mayer, Andrea Bocelli, Joshua Bell and even Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler.

Hitting the road for 250 plus days per year, Chris and his incredible band have performed with many of the finest symphonies, at some of the world’s most prestigious venues, including performances at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony.

The latest album (with DVD included) ‘Chris Botti in Boston’ was recorded live with Chris’s band and the Boston Pops Orchestra with renowned conductor Keith Lockhard. To add to an already auspicious live concert occasion, Chris invited an extraordinary variety of musical artists, including Sting, Josh Groban, Stephen Tyler, Yo Yo Ma, John Mayer and many more to join him on-stage for a pair of once-in-a-lifetime concerts at Boston’s historic Symphony Hall in September 2008. The recorded result is a superb selection of songs and performances that is available now in Australia through Universal Music.

The Frontier Touring Company is thrilled to welcome trumpeter Chris Botti  touring Australia for the very first time in August 2010.

The Opera

He's young, charming, cunning and utterly merciless. Don Giovanni's dalliances have left a trail of heartbreak and shattered dreams; and he seems unstoppable.  Finally he goes too far in pursuit of pleasure, and is made to face the terrifying consequences of his actions.  Mozart's music is as powerful and seductive as his characters.  Bold and the Beautiful has nothing on this.

Our Production

Performed in English and featuring an outstanding cast of young artists, this slightly abridged version is the perfect choice for opera lovers and aficionados alike.  A youthful, vital production directed by outstanding young director Cameron Menzies, with set design by award-winning, Gloss Creative's Amanda Henderson. The singers will be supported by a professional orchestra conducted by Trevor Jones.

 "To dream the impossible dream!"

September 17 – October 2, 2010
The National Theatre, St Kilda
Evening Performances at 8pm
Sunday Matinees September 19 & September 26 at 2pm

Unforgettable words from a timeless song from one of the most enduring musicals of all time – Man of La Mancha. 

Winner of 5 Tony Awards, (including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Actor), as well as the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Musical, Man of La Mancha tells the classic tale of Don Quixote as brought to life by its author Miguel de Cervantes, who is imprisoned and awaiting trial during the Spanish Inquisition.

Join Don Quixote and his loyal squire Sancho Panza as they fight windmills, mirrors, muleteers, gypsies, sceptics – and a shaving basin - in their quest to save damsels, right wrongs and challenge injustices - “the impossible dream”.
Featuring memorable, melodic and moving songs such as the title song, (Man of La Mancha), Dulcinea, I Really Like Him, A Little Gossip, Little Bird, Little Bird and of course The Impossible Dream which has become an immortal standard, Man of La Mancha’s themes of hope, optimism, seeing only good and being true to one’s dreams remain just as relevant today as when Cervantes wrote his epic tale 500 years ago.
