Until the 1990s few women claimed the rock and roll stage and only a handful of rock divas such as Cyndi Lauper, Janet Jackson, Shania Twain and Cher took to the stage.
Watch these divas take on the likes of rock band Def Leppard and superstars Prince and Billy Ocean and more to fight to win over audiences and critics.
The Battle of the Sexes covers the ultimate wedding sequence where the girls are going to the chapel to feel like a “Natural Woman”.
For the guys she simply “Drives me Crazy”, and when things go wrong we encounter a “Chain of Fools” where the girls demand some “Respect”.
At the work place it is “Just another Manic Monday” where the girls are working “Nine to Five” for their male bosses who are happy to be “Hip to be Square”.
In the ultimate icon challenge we see Annie Lennox, Madonna and Tina Turner making a stand against the likes of Elton John, Bon Jovi and Freddie Mercury — followed by more recent icons such as Lady Gaga, Pink and Katy Perry taking on Bruno Mars and Robin Thicke.
It is all nonstop action but the power and sentiment of the ballads such as “Use Somebody” by Kings of Leon and “Someone like You” by Adele — reveal a softer more intimate side of the show.
Battle of the Sexes features a 11 piece cast of singers, musicians and dancers who perform a fun, slick and energetic show that is suitable for party rockers and those who are “Addicted to Love”, but at the end of the day the “Girls just wanna have Fun” and the guys “Just wanna get Rocked”.
Nobody will ever win the battle of the sexes but for music lovers this is a celebration of musical icons who have made their mark on our lives with their music and song.
Hold onto to your seats as this battle is going to rock you like never before
Shows are performed every Tuesday to Saturdays at 8pm and on Sundays at 2pm.
