The Ironing Maidens live electronic experience is the absolute most fun you will ever have while thinking about the housework.
Ingeniously adapting real irons and ironing boards into electronic instruments this performance is a high energy, captivating explosion of dancing, visuals, wit, humour and steamy hot sounds. With house inspired tracks built from real world laundry sounds and samples, the Ironing Maidens set bangs like an unbalanced washing machine and you will be dancing your way to a wrinkle free, electro future.
The Ironing Maidens have toured Europe, playing Germany's famous Fusion Festival, The Performing Arts Festival Berlin, featured at Byron Bay's Falls Festival, Woodford Folk Festival, Jungle Love, The Planting Festival, Wide Open Spaces, were finalists in the Grant McLennan Fellowship and won a John Chataway Innovation Award for their shows at Adelaide Fringe Festival in 2019 and 2020.
The show is timely, relevant and thought provoking, but at the same time wholly entertaining and funny. It's a multi-platform mix of original music, captivating visuals, pop costumes by Frida Las Vegas, lighting, high energy dance and plenty of ironing puns. It has toured regional laundromats in NSW and QLD to rave reviews and sold out shows.
Entry to Rockhampton River Festival is FREE. The Ironing Maidens is a ticketed show.
