Em Rusciano: Ballroom Sessions Encore
This event is strictly 18+
Forum subscriber pre-sale begins 12pm Monday 25 August. General public tickets on sale 12pm Tuesday 26 August.
After a sold-out run at the Brunswick Ballroom, Em Rusciano brings The Ballroom Sessions to Forum Melbourne for one night only. Part comedy, part concert, part confessional, the show strips things back to Em, her band, and whatever side quests her brain takes her on.
Ten years after performing in the Forum’s supply cupboard, she’s back on the main stage under the famous blue roof. Expect big songs, big laughs, family cameos, and the kind of raw, unpredictable chaos that only Em can deliver.
With very special guests, Michael Paynter and Jemma Rix.
