Jimmy Barnes To Film Final Working Class Boy Show

in News

Jimmy Barnes will end his Working Class Boy tour at Sydney’s State Theatre by filming the event for a movie and television event.

Barnes recently added Sydney and Melbourne encore shows as well as Geelong and Yarram as he wraps up his Working Class Boy tour.

The Working Class Boy tour has been something completely different for Barnes, based around his recent autobiography Working Class Boy.

The ‘Stories & Songs’ shows see Jimmy Barnes, surrounded on stage by his children Mahalia and Jackie and son-in-law Ben Rodgers, bring the book to life, while baring his heart and soul.

Appropriately the tour has been drawing attention to the great work of the Luke Batty Foundation (www.lukebattyfoundation.com.au). In addition to providing relevant information online and at all of his shows Jimmy also encourages everyone to support former Australian of the Year Rosie Batty’s campaign to end family violence by signing up at www.neveralone.com.au

The Working Class Boy audiobook was written and read by Jimmy Barnes and recorded at his home studio and is only available as a digital download from his website (ie: not from any other online stores) here. Click here to listen to a sample.

Tickets to this special State Theatre show go on general sale at 10.00am local time on Wednesday, 8 March 2017.

Frontier Members pre-sale: Monday, 6 March from 12.00pm local time until Tuesday, 7 March at 12.00pm (or earlier if pre-sale allocation exhausted)
