For one night only experience a highlights package of three brand new musicals created by Australian writers and staged by some of Australia's top musical theatre talent.
LIFE'S A CIRCUS by Anthony Costanzo
Three rising stars join a modern day touring Circus, only to find themselves trapped in an intricate triangle of love, sexuality and betrayal.
PINK by Joanna White
Based on true events, the remarkable story of how a colour can change your life.
BETTER THAN BROADWAY
by David Mitchell, Melvyn Morrow and Ray Cook
A laugh-out-loud spoof on the politics of community groups, and the "serious business" of amateur theatre.
And if that's not enough to tantalise your musical theatre tastebuds, then just sink your teeth into OzMade Flashbacks - songs from past successful Australian musicals performed by some of the greats of the Australian stage. These performances give audiences a chance to remember or discover some of the great songs written for the musical stage, by Australians.
This years' OzMade Flashbacks will star some of Australia's favourite theatrical performers, Toni Lamond, joining Magnormos again to reprise her role in the musical Better Known As Bee and Michael Cormick (Rocky Horror Show) who will perform a number from the classic The Sentimental Bloke . The Flashbacks will also include a special feature on the 50th anniversary of Lola Montez by students of the University of Ballarat Arts Academy.
"We are thrilled to have Tony Sheldon hosting OzMade Musicals again, and honoured that he is flying down to Melbourne for the occasion on his one night off from playing Bernadette in Sydney season of Priscilla! Tony has a wonderful way of guiding the OzMade audience through the performance program, and colouring it with his own rich knowledge of Australia's theatre history" said Aaron Joyner, founder and Artistic Director of Magnormos.
The three works that will be debuted this year at OzMade Musicals were chosen via a national submission process which employed the expertise of Tony Sheldon, John-Michael Howson, Geraldine Turner OAM, David King, Dr. Peter Wyllie Johnston, Prof. Peter Fitzpatrick, Stuart Hendricks, Ellie Nielsen, and Magnormos Artistic Director, Aaron Joyner.
"It is always an exciting and frenetic process to select musicals for OzMade. We had a terrific pool of submissions to select from, and an extraordinarily experienced panel. I am confident that the musicals chosen for presentation this year will thoroughly entertain, and will hopefully progress to full productions in the near future" said Joyner.
