Once a thriving cinema where families would come for Sunday outings and teens and twenty-somethings would come for an awkward first date is now overpriced budget accommodation. Inside, a community of mostly struggling artists, musicians, dancers and writers make ends meet. Just. A creative commune that capitalism, greed and artificial intelligence forgot. A new Bohemia. Sam yearns for acceptance from their family. Rufus' creative inspiration has run dry. Max suppresses the fear that life is leaving him behind. Emma is caught between her musical ambition and the reality that her dreams don't pay the rent. While Colin and Zoe's relationship is tested by burgeoning insecurities, Mimi finds the courage to be vulnerable despite the uncertainty of her future. Inspired by 'RENT' and 'La Boheme', this new play with songs imagines a dystopian future where AI has ransacked the arts industry, corporate greed has escalated the cost of living and sustainability crises, and despite technological and scientific advancements a cure for cancer remains elusive. Featuring nostalgic songs from the 80s and 90s, this original work devised with a group of young people reflects the enduring capacity of art to challenge, provoke and activate audiences to imagine and create a better future, and the vital importance of community. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/adelaide/metropolis-now-at-the-adelaide-fringe/200027885128230 - **Event Categories**: music, art, entertainment, live-music, performances, theatre, literary-art, trips-adventures, artificial-intelligence - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 27 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://adelaidefringe.com.au/fringetix/metropolis-now-af2025?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=adelaide-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Adelaide - **state**: SA - **country**: Australia - **location**: 24 Winchester Street, Highgate, SA, Australia, South Australia 5063 - **lat**: -34.95979 - **long**: 138.61859 - **full address**: 24 Winchester Street, Highgate, SA, Australia, South Australia 5063, 30 Winchester St, Highgate SA 5063, Australia,Adelaide, South Australia ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: Concordia College, Adelaide (https://allevents.in/org/concordia-college-adelaide/15217595) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/96a293fcdaf937d8e534a4923397791962c63d594d62e5d2132c7cd353c21ec5-rimg-w1200-h675-dc434565-gmir?v=1740445530 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/1ba6c60b6489787758b73e30a996c4f40c76aa0adfd8d4ef5e4e042c6970d714-rimg-w300-h300-dc454463-gmir?v=1740445530 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Thu, 27 Feb, 2025 at 06:30 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 24 Winchester Street, Highgate, SA, Australia, South Australia 5063, 30 Winchester St, Highgate SA 5063, Australia,Adelaide, South Australia - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Concordia College, Adelaide - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** music, art, entertainment, live-music, performances, theatre, literary-art, trips-adventures, artificial-intelligence - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Metropolis Now at the Adelaide Fringe ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "MusicEvent", "name": "Metropolis Now at the Adelaide Fringe", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/96a293fcdaf937d8e534a4923397791962c63d594d62e5d2132c7cd353c21ec5-rimg-w1200-h675-dc434565-gmir?v=1740445530", "startDate": "2025-02-27", "endDate": "2025-02-27", "url": "https://allevents.in/adelaide/metropolis-now-at-the-adelaide-fringe/200027885128230", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "24 Winchester Street, Highgate, SA, Australia, South Australia 5063", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "30 Winchester St, Highgate SA 5063, Australia,Adelaide, South Australia", "addressLocality": "Adelaide", "addressRegion": "SA", "addressCountry": "AU" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "-34.95979", "longitude": "138.61859" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Metropolis Now by Aldo Longobardi\nA play with songs\n\n- Thursday 27 February, 6.30pm\n- Friday 28 February, 6.30pm\n- Saturday 1 March, 2.30pm and 6.30pm\n\nDrama Centre, Concordia College\n24 Winchester Street, Highgate\n\nTickets: $18-$25\nTicket specials for Fringe Members, Bank SA cardholders and Nunn Di", "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Concordia College Adelaide", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/concordia-college-adelaide/15217595", "description": "Concordia College is a co-educational Early Learning Centre to Year 12 International Baccalaureate World School located in Adelaide's eastern suburbs." } ] } ] ```
