Take a spin through Aussie holidays of the past with MOTEL, the acclaimed live show from comedian and self proclaimed design nerd Tim Ross. Join the creator and presenter of the hit ABC TV shows Streets Of Your Town and Designing a Legacy for a special one off performance.
Sentimental, nostalgic and of course hilarious, this is a must for anyone who has checked in and helped themselves to a twin pack of biscuits in a classic Aussie motel.
This special event includes entry to touring exhibition Reception this way: motels - a sentimental journey with Tim Ross and The Workshops Rail Museum.
Tim Ross may be best known for his work on TV and radio (at different times hosting both the number one breakfast and drive shows in Sydney) but comedian Tim Ross has also always had a passion for architecture and design. Tim also passionately supports important issues in Australian architecture and design, and in 2018 Tim was awarded the National Trust Heritage Award for Advocacy. In 2019 Tim was awarded the National President’s Prize from the Australian Institute of Architects, then in 2022 Tim was not only asked to be a member of the National Architecture Awards jury, but also awarded an honorary member of the Australian Institute of Architects.
