Three hundred lucky people braved the heat last night to watch the spellbinding premiere of WAVE 2018. Judge Richard Weakley said the calibre of costumes this year set a new benchmark. "A dizzying parade of style and skill had us scrutinising small details to try and set the entrants apart from one another, such was the craftsmanship and creativity on display."
Last night's event ended with the announcement of the winning garments, the creators of which will share in almost $8,000 prize money.
With opening night under their belts, the performers are looking forward to cooler conditions for the remaining performances.
A reminder to ticketholders - please print your tickets out at home and come early to enjoy the fabulous pre-show dining experience by the WAVE food team, featuring Buddha Bowls, coffee, cakes and cool drinks.
Congratulations to the winners of WAVE 2018 'Homecoming: Labyrinth of Twists and Turns'. Enjoy the performances!
