On the eve of a major national decision, there’s only one vote that truly matters on the Central Coast – Blondie vs Pretenders. The ultimate showdown of rock goddesses lands at Avoca Theatre on May 2, and you’re invited to cast your allegiance through song, style and pure swagger.
Presented by Access All Eras, this high-energy tribute show brings the hits and the stories behind the songs, from two of the most iconic bands in rock history. With a powerful video backdrop and a killer live band, audiences will be transported to the wild heydays of the ‘70s and ‘80s – where glam and guitars reigned supreme.
Starring Amanda Easton (Wendy Matthews, Powderfinger) as the dazzling Deborah Harry of Blondie, and Sarina Jennings (James Morrison, Richard Clapton) as the fierce and fearless Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders, the show features an elite line-up of musicians:
Mike Caen (guitar – Mental as Anything)
Tim Wedde (keys – Jenny Morris)
Lloyd Gyi (drums – The Atlantics)
Steve Bull (bass – Icehouse)
From Brass In Pocket to Heart of Glass, every track is a hit, every story is wild, and every moment is steeped in rock ‘n’ roll history.
And yes – the Federal Election is on May 3, but this is your chance to warm up those decision-making muscles in the most fun way possible. Forget the polling booth drama – come enjoy the queens of rock the night before, with a soundtrack that defined generations.

WHERE: Avoca Beach Theatre, Avoca, NSW
