UK electronic music producer Clark is on at The Bakery, the Indigo Girls are playing at The Concert Hall, its Steak Night at The Court Hotel.

Friday
At Sci Tech, the Sound Chamber has been fired up, it’s a giant inflatable dome and your movement creates sound, mountains of fun. Check out The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber at Burswood Theatre, it’s a great show that winds through the composers’ hits and some lesser known works.

Saturday
The Fremantle Street Art Festival starts on Saturday, head down to Fishing Boat Harbour for some fish and chips, and then wonder the streets. Take the children (or borrow some) and check out Monica Main in The Mary Surefoot Shoe Collection at Spare Parts Puppet Theatre. Get your groove on and head to Creamfields at Claremont showgrounds. Satuday night at Connections, Tim Brown is celebrating his 20th year of being at the club.

Sunday

On Sunday night at Connections it’s the Women’s Night ‘Stache – girls only for this one. Over at The Court Hotel it’s the annual Gay Prom – dress up for this one.
