Tra La La performances feature upbeat, highly inspiring dance music from singer Tracy Hardwick’s original album ‘Tra La La’; dance from Chris Combes, an extraordinarily talented choreographer and sensual mover; and Wateira Yali who adds such grace, pizzazz and showmanship to her dances.
The performances are all rehearsed according to the show’s theme. Each is costumed, with lights and sound by Kerian from the Baroque Nightclub in Katoomba. The next show will have new songs, dances, costumes and a new theme. Each performance personifies positivity and the aim is to lift your spirit to another dimension. Music is meant to inspire emotion, move and reenergise the listener. Each show is dedicated to this art form.

What will you be doing and what does the DJ do?
Tra la la shows are delighted to be able to have El Capitano DJing for us after the live performances. He plays until the client wants him to finish. Generally the cut off time is 1am.He is a gifted selector of deep house that has been selected from around the world. African tribal beats, beautifully mixed with the sounds of our dearly departed Avicii, a touch of burning man sets, Jan Blomqbist and El Capitano’s latest finds. He is a dedicated music lover whose passion is mixing music to build a crescendo into the late hours of the night and morning.
After the live shows have finished, the tables and chairs are removed and the dancers in the crowd express themselves. Add to the mix some rather sexy ladies dancing with their fibre flies and You have a very memorable end to your event.
We also have DJ Shimon, from London, who has played internationally. A strong, sensual vibe emanates from each set. He has been playing for over twenty five years and his focus is always on upbeat positive music.
