Hosted at the Gov’s Balcony Bar, Press Any Key To Start teleports fringe-goers through a series of fantastical franchises across the sci-fi genre, lead by musical maestro Sarah Valle. Backgrounded by the beautiful Adelaide sunset, sit back and relax as science fiction becomes reality before your very eyes and ears!
Specialising in immersive soundscapes with more than a hint of humour along the way, the hour-long performance instils a degree of nostalgia for moments that seem to be in a galaxy far far away. Sharing her deep personal connection to the film genre and its scores, Sarah uses the musical backdrops of X Files, Blade Runner, and Terminator to show her love for sci-fi and its impact on her life.
But don’t worry! Sarah’s got a few tricks up her sleeve with hits from Bowie and Adele sprinkled throughout the performance. With a galaxy-hopping Star Wars medley and a killer rendition of the Pokemon intro, the show has something for everyone!
So, whether you’re talking to Major Tom about Life on Mars, travelling through time and space in the Tardis, or avoiding Vader’s attention, Press Any Key To Start is the perfect show for you.
