The Wedding Singer: The Musical Comedy

Grab your leg warmers, strap on your roller blades and whip out the cassette player as you’re transported back to the 80’s for some high-octane retro fun! Based on the beloved Hollywood film, starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, The Wedding Singer: The Musical Comedy is here to celebrate everything that makes the 80’s so delightful. It follows Robbie Hart, a wedding singer who decides to turn other weddings into disasters as a result of his own disastrous wedding… that is until he comes across the woman of his dreams. Written by Chad Beguelin, who previously orchestrated Aladdin’s stage debut, and backed by an electric 80’s-inspired soundtrack, this is sure to blow the socks off the Athenaeum Theatre when it arrives. Having sold out theatres on Broadway and through the UK, you can expect the same to happen here, so get in quick once tickets are released!

Moulin Rouge! The Musical

The largest and most significant show to hit Melbourne’s theatre scene in 2021 is none other than Moulin Rouge! The Musical, based on the iconic 2001 film from Baz Luhrmann.

A visual spectacle packed full of lavish sets, colourful costumes and spellbinding musical numbers, this show is sure to be nothing short of an absolute spectacle. Prepare to delve into a world of splendour and romance, where the glitz and glam of show-biz will be oozing off the stage and through a packed auditorium at Her Majesty’s Theatre.
