A blast from the past! Live from NZIF 2013, Vance Fontaine and his big band are joined by guests galore from across the fest.
"New Zealand's favourite improvised musical sensation is back but this time he's bigger!
Well, his band is….
For one show only Vance and his regular band – The Peculiar Sensations – are joined by a bunch of guests. Some of whom you'd least expect. Other festival improvisers bring their musical instruments or their voices and join friends of Vance and the band onstage.
You may have marvelled at their quick wit earlier in the festival, you may have seen them do a Shakespeare, or perform a continuous scene but now see them sing or play an instrument you never knew they could. It's time to see these performers way out of their comfort zone in a show that takes the unpredictability of Vance Fontaine to its very limits."
Recorded 20 September 2013 at BATS Theatre (Out of Site)
