A sellout success: Yana Alana And Tha Paranas In Concert
After telling Melbourne, Adelaide and Copenhagen audiences, in no uncertain terms, to ‘Bite Me’, Yana Alana returned with a five piece band to present Yana Alana and Tha Paranas In Concert at the 2010 Midsumma Festival. In Concert ran from 27 – 30 January at Gasworks Arts Park and featured guest musicians The Iguanas.
The irreverent, irrational, self-declared Diva put down her famous poetry book to unleash the singing, dancing (and occasional tantrum-throwing) showgirl within, and sell-out audiences and critics alike loved it.
“Yana Alana And The Paranas In Concert with special guests the Iguanas is exquisitely beautiful and sophisticated; from the sets to the ambience, costume to vocals, performance to content and ensemble, every element is beautifully considered.” Read the SameSame.com.au review
“DON’T I look smokin’?” Yana Alana (Sarah Ward) is holding the audience spellbound as she indulges in a bout of preening between belting out numbers.” Read The Age review
