    ADELAIDEFESTIVAL.COM.AU WELCOME Jay Weatherill Premier of South Australia 2 Welcome to the Adelaide Festival. Enjoyed amid warm March days and starry nights, it has been long-recognised as one of the world’s best arts events. Now an annual fixture, it ignites the city’s passion for the very best in theatre, dance, opera, literature, music, film and the visual arts. 2013 brings audiences a breathtaking dance series featuring one of the greatest dancers of our time, Sylvie Guillem, flamenco master Carlos Saura and contemporary dance powerhouse Wim Vandekeybus. Theatre experiences range from the large-scale to the intimate with Broadway hit One Man, Two Guvnors and Belgian company Ontroerend Goed’s award-winning immersive and interactive trilogy series. Local talent shines with highly- anticipated events across the program, including the awe-inspiring Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and a massed 60-voice choir giving new life to 1968 sci-fi masterpiece film 2001: A Space Odyssey. American performance artist Laurie Anderson collaborating with the Kronos Quartet will be a feature of the strong music program, which also includes a beautiful free evening in Elder Park with Adelaide-born singer songwriter Paul Kelly and celebrated New Zealand performer Neil Finn. Adelaide Writers’ Week again offers insights into great contemporary writers and writing, mostly in open air, and uniquely free, sessions. The hugely popular late-night club Barrio returns and is bound to be a highlight again. These attractions are just the beginning of this wide-ranging program of exclusive shows, internationally acclaimed artists and inclusive events. I look forward to seeing you there.
