A Friend of Dorothy: Anthems of Pride was a joyous homage to resilience, fabulousness and the enduring power of music. Making his long-awaited solo cabaret debut, multi-award-winning Adelaide performer Lindsay Prodea invited audiences to celebrate queer icons and the unforgettable anthems that shaped generations.

Backed by a stellar four-piece band, this world premiere blended soul-stirring vocals with heartfelt storytelling, featuring timeless hits from legends like Madonna, Judy Garland, Elton John, Lady Gaga and more. It was a nostalgic and uplifting journey through the rich history of queer music, honouring the artists who sparked change and inspired pride through song.

Written, produced and performed by queer Adelaide creatives, Anthems of Pride was a vibrant, sold-out celebration of visibility, acceptance and community. For its heart, its artistry and its impact, A Friend of Dorothy: Anthems of Pride is the 2025 Event of the Year.
