Ella & Sienna, sisters from the Adelaide Hills, have brought their REPUTATION: The Ultimate Taylor Swift Show back to the Arkaba Hotel for the third consecutive year. By now, every detail of their set list, costumes, and tech has been perfected, delivering a flawless, jam-packed two-hour Swiftie experience. Across the afternoon, they pulled off back-to-back Taylor Swift hits in dazzling outfits, packing in as many fan favourites as possible.

Throughout the production, Ella & Sienna journey through Taylor’s 12 eras, from her debut album to The Life of a Showgirl!. When they first launched this show two years ago, The Tortured Poets Department and The Life of a Showgirl hadn’t yet been released, and as new albums have arrived, their set has evolved to include them. The sisters strike the right balance between fan-favourite staples, clever medleys, and the occasional vault track, ensuring the performance feels up to date.

As we journeyed through the eras, we were even treated to the song Ella & Sienna sang on The Voice Australia: Cardigan, featured on the Folklore album. The afternoon closed with The Life of a Showgirl medley: The Fate of Ophelia, Opalite, and Father Figure, before an inevitable encore of Shake It Off. Because really, what Taylor Swift tribute show would be complete without it?

This reviewer has followed Ella & Sienna since their first original song, Save Your Breath, written about the Cudlee Creek fires in 2020. Since then, they’ve continually evolved and strengthened their presence in the Australian music scene—here’s hoping their upward trajectory continues well into the future.
