As Madonna’s Australian fans breathlessly await the return of the Material Girl to their country after a 23 year absence, the occasion will be further celebrated by the newly announced intimate club show – MADONNA: TEARS OF A CLOWN – an exclusive fan show that will fuse music, art and comedy at Melbourne’s historic Forum Theatre on March 10. Tickets for this intimate show will be available to Madonna’s Icon fan club winners, and fans should stay tuned to Madonna.com for details on how to enter. DJ Mary Mac will be on hand to start off the party.

Madonna said, “I wanted to do something special for Australia because you have been so patient and waited so long – the “Tears of a Clown” show will make its debut on March 10th. Performance art, comedy, story telling and music of course! Especially for you my Rebel Heart fans down under!!”
