The five-star rockumentary hit of Adelaide Fringe comes to Sydney, with an 8-piece band starring Kylie Auldist (The Bamboos), Jaron Jay and Dusty Lee Stephensen (Wanderers).
In 2016, we felt the loss of music icons David Bowie, George Michael, Prince, Leonard Cohen, Maurice White (Earth Wind & Fire), Glenn Frey (Eagles), Sharon Jones, Leon Russell and Rick Parfitt (Status Quo). A decade later, it's time to honour these beloved legends who gave us the soundtrack to our lives. This isn’t a memorial – it’s a celebration turned up loud!
Upon its debut at Adelaide Fringe 2026, Twenty Sixteen became an instant sensation – lauded for its exceptional musicianship, craft and powerhouse vocals. Now it’s Sydney’s turn to reclaim the year the music died, in the city’s best-sounding music Hall.

★★★★★ “There is something very special about watching true musicians doing exactly what they were put on this earth to do…There’s no other way to describe this show except spectacular.” Adelaide Advertiser
★★★★★ “…music that transcend both generations and genres.” Hi Fi Way
★★★★★ “This deeply moving show immerses the crowd in the music and lives of these late artists, and is guaranteed to have them singing, dancing, laughing and sobbing along.” InDaily
★★★★★ “Eight pieces. Tight. Precise. Driven.” The Scoop
★★★★★ “full-throttle, spine-tingling, memory-activating....This isn’t a quiet memorial. It’s a celebration turned up loud by full-force talent.” On Your Markus
★★★★★ “powerful, joy-filled reminder of just how deeply music binds memory, grief and celebration.” The Upside News

Amelia Ryan and Zac Tyler of Amplified House specialise in creating original live music and cabaret productions, staging events around Australia, the US and UK.
Amplified House is best known for their hit rockumentary 27 Club which has played major festivals and venues in over 20 cities across Australia and New Zealand. The acclaimed production has become one of the biggest hits at Adelaide Fringe (“powerful, it’s moving and, most importantly, it’s fun.” Adelaide Advertiser), Sydney Fringe (“an unforgettable experience” Weekend Notes) and now Edinburgh Fringe (“a blow-your-socks-off experience that is not to be missed.” Theatre Scotland).
Amplified House’s latest production Twenty Sixteen was the critical and commercial hit of Adelaide Fringe 2026, with Sydney the first city to host the production after its debut. Other Amplified House productions include Simply Brill (“impeccable performance”), Disco Wonderland (“spellbinding”), I Am Woman (“a spontaneous standing ovation”), and Livvy & Pete (★★★★★).
