Active in Song

If you were in Newcastle's Civic Park precinct on Wednesday [Nov 25] you would have heard Ruby Blue raising its voice for White Ribbon Day....the International Day for the elimination of Violence against Women.
We were proud to be part of the lunchtime event and say 'thank you' to the organisers.
The day marked the beginning of 16 days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence - a campaign to galvanise action to end violence against women and girls around the world.
Around the Newcastle region, you will see a number of initiatives supporting the campaign including a Flash Mob popping up at a number of shopping centres and tourist locations.
Ruby Blue will raise its voices again during this campaign - and for any worthy cause that needs a voice for compassion.

Whoops!  Sorry!  We forgot to tell you that we'd be playing at the Planet Dungog Festival in May .... but we didn't want to forget to let you know that we're doing a set at this year's SOUP! concert on Saturday 1st August at the Royal Exchange Salon Theatre in Bolton Street Newcastle.

SOUP! is an annual event - a fun quirky fast-paced evening and like any good pot of soup is filled with tasty ingredients and a surprise or two. Ruby Blue will be finishing the evening off with a set of our own delicious material.
Tickets are just $22pp and include a cup of yummy fresh soup.  You can get them at the door if you're lucky but we recommend you book in advance - either by phoning the theatre on 4929 4969  or go to the ticketing link: ww.trybooking.com/ICDD
