Currently playing at the Regent Theatre and starring Casey Donovan, Genevieve Lemon and Rhonda Burchmore, the Broadway and UK smash hit musical comedy is based on the iconic film starring Whoopi Goldberg. It features original music by Tony and eight-time Oscar award-winner Alan Menken (Disney’s Aladdin, Enchanted, The Little Mermaid), and songs inspired by Motown, soul and disco, making this heavenly musical joyous and uplifting in equal measures.
The Choir of Hard Knocks, Australia’s most famous choir, was introduced to the public in 2006 in the award-winning ABC TV series Choir of Hard Knocks. Now in their 19th year, the choir has continued on their amazing journey, with some of the original members from the award-winning documentary. The choir aims to help overcoming social isolation and homelessness through the joy and connection of singing.
