Nelson Fringe: Blue Experience

A highlight from the 2020 Nelson (Digital) Fringe was Sophie Ricketts’ charmed love letter to Joni Mitchell’s Blue.
What’s your favourite album? You know: the one you play on repeat, know all the words to, and never get tired of? For Sophie Ricketts, that album is Joni Mitchell’s 1971 masterpiece, Blue.
Just as it mapped out Joni's elation and heartbreak during her formative years, so it felt like a blueprint of navigating adult decisions and independence for Sophie.

Join Sophie on a journey through the album’s ten songs and explains just what is so special about each one. For an evening that is one part musical tribute, two parts vulnerability, and 100% sincere, be a part of the Blue experience.

Nelson Fringe Festival is using 2021 as a year to re-group, re-energise and create building blocks for the future, by thinking a bit laterally, a bit sideways, and a bit backwards. It’s part of the constant challenge of figuring what being a Fringe is all about.
