Shortis & Simpson present Hidden Canberra

Quirky songs and stories of Canberra and region.
John Shortis and Moya Simpson moved to the Canberra region from Sydney in 1996. John fell instantly in love with a place where history and politics popped up everywhere he looked. For Moya it was where her passion for world music and voices flourished.
Hidden Canberra is their tribute to the city and environs, where their creativity has been able to blossom for nearly 30 years.
With a bunch of original and collected songs, an array of projected images, and a witty and informative script, the wildly interesting and quirky depth of the capital region comes to life.
Stories of a rainbow coloured airport, a right wing pollie once a serious Canberra punk, public art, musical street names, Lake George as a capital city, and much, much more. And you thought you knew Canberra…
Hidden Canberra is Shortis and Simpson’s funny, moving, surprising love letter to the weird and wonderful town that they proudly call home.
