Spandau Ballet To Attend Movie Premiere In Sydney And Melbourne

Spandau Ballet will attend the Melbourne and Sydney premiere of their documentary ‘Soul Boys of the Western World’ in November.

Sydney’s premiere will include a Q&A with the band after the screening while in Melbourne the original members of Spandau Ballet will hold a Q&A and then play a special 20 minute performance.

According to the band’s movie distributor Madman ‘Soul Boys of the Western World is a journey through the 1980s and beyond; the story of a band, an era and how one small gathering of outsiders in London shaped the entire world’s view of music and fashion. The film is not only a fascinating, often hard-hitting social and cultural document of the time, but a brutally honest story of how friendships can be won, lost and ultimately regained”.

To coincide with the visit Warner Music will release the new compilation ‘The Very Best of Spandau Ballet’.

EVENT DETAILS

Melbourne:
Wednesday 5 November, 7pm – Arts
Centre Melbourne, Hamer Hall

Sydney:
