Take a spin through Aussie holidays of the past with MOTEL, the acclaimed live show from comedian and self proclaimed design nerd Tim Ross and musician Kit Warhurst.
Sentimental, nostalgic and of course hilarious, this is a must for anyone who has checked in and helped themselves to a twin pack of biscuits in a classic motel.
"Warhurst and Ross are comedic geniuses, highly talented singers and great lyricists. They will bring you laughter as you follow them on their journey in their old bench-seat Ford. 5 stars." - Arts Hub
"Hilarious" - The Age
For this special performance, they are taking over the auditorium in the Polish White Eagle Club, designed by Enrico Taglietti in 1970.
Internationally acclaimed Italian-born architect, Dr Enrico Taglietti, was commissioned to devise the building concept and design. His artistic vision for the Club was to “symbolise a big tent under which the whole Polish family in Canberra would gather”.
The buildings overlapping layered roofs create a sequence of stepped internal volumes allowing natural light to penetrate deep into the heart of the building. The roofs all drain to the front of the building originally into purpose built concrete tubs to allow the rain water to slowly dissipate into the drainage system, a means to control large water volumes during heavy rainfalls.
