About this event
What to expect
Presented by Ipswich Civic Centre…
Fred Smith and band perform a survey in song of the experiences of Australians at war beginning with the iconic works of Lawson, Bogle, Walker and Schumann, leading through to his own firsthand song-stories from the valleys of Uruzgan Province.
The performance offers a gritty and personal account of the on-the-ground realities faced by our soldiers in offshore conflicts. Framed by a stunning collection of projected photos and some cheeky Aussie humour, the songs are set in historical and strategic context, honouring the sacrifices made while asking some timely questions about the costs and benefits of our "alliance wars".
