WE’RE GOING TO GRACELAND - THE SONGS OF PAUL SIMON
Grace Knight & Wendy Matthews are two of the most iconic and beloved singers in Australian music…...they’re both multi-award winning artists with a swag of Countdown, MTV & ARIA awards between them and a bundle of platinum albums under their belt.
In their first show together, and for a limited time, these legends of Aussie music present the songs of one of the world’s greatest living songwriters. Paul Simon has written some of the best known and acclaimed songs in popular music, ranging from gems like Sounds Of Silence, The Boxer, Homeward Bound and Bridge Over Trouble Water, to his solo classics like, You Can Call Me Al, Late In The Evening, Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes and Graceland. His albums, Bridge Over Troubled Water and Graceland feature among the highest-selling albums of all time.
Along with an all-star band, Wendy & Grace will take you on an unforgettable journey across the hits and crowd favourites. Friends for many years, Grace and Wendy have been looking for a break in their hectic performing schedules so they could join forces and do a show together. ‘We’re Going To Graceland – The Songs of Paul Simon’ showcases the vocal talents of these two music industry giants and they will thrill audiences with their interpretations of an iconic collection of songs.

Northern Beaches Jive is a social dance group. Our Modern Jive classes are held every Wednesday at 7.30pm at Narrabeen RSL.
Modern Jive is an easy partner dance with an emphasis on having fun and is great for all ages. Our experienced teachers always make the lesson interesting and fun.
You can come along to class any time as we cater for new beginners every week. You don't have to sign up for a course - just come along when it suits you. First timers are only $10 for the first two weeks in total!! You can even just come and watch for free to see if you think you'll like it.
There’s no need to bring a partner as we rotate you around to different partners during the class.
We start with a beginner class at 7:30pm for 45 minutes, followed by social dancing. At 9pm we have an Intermediate /advanced class for 45 minutes, and a concurrent 'refresher' class for the beginners, then social dancing until 10:30pm. That’s right beginners get 2 classes every night.
Casual entry is $15 per night. Students and seniors are only $12 per night. We also have discounted prices, for all groups, if you buy a 5 class pass. Great value for learning and dancing up to 3 hours per night.
If you're keen and would like to go to a class more than once a week, or go to a dance party in the weekend then check out www.ceroc.com.au where you'll find more classes and weekly dance parties.
