A Case of You: The Music of Joni Mitchell - 10 Year Anniversary Show

A love letter to one of the most inspiring singer-songwriters of the Woodstock era. Join us for our ten year anniversary special as cabaret songbird and storyteller Deborah Brennan connects the musical dots from Mitchell's formidable body of work, which echoed the restless spirit of the '70s, and crafts them into a memorable soundtrack of her own life wrapped in a contemporary story of free-spirited travel, love, and reflection.

"Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe..." we'll laugh and toast to the nostalgia of simpler times.

★★★★ "Beautiful to watch and beautiful to listen to" The Clothesline
★★★★ "Brennan's personal engagement with the music is the fuel that powers the show and lights it up" The Edinburgh Reporter
★★★1/2 "A gem of a show, beautiful and hauntingly simple" The Australia Times
