Before the beloved movie version there was the wonderful fun, heart-warming stage MUSICAL!

Wangaratta Players are very proud to present their production of this wonderful AUSSIE musical LIVE ON STAGE at the Wangaratta Performing Arts Centre with 4 big shows from August 17 to 19.
Set in 1950s Sydney when the city is on the cusp of becoming cosmopolitan, a young high school graduate Lisa takes a holiday job at Goodes, the most prestigious department store in town.

In that summer of innocence, a world of possibilities opens up as she befriends the ladies of the women’s frock department – including her new mentor, the exotic European Magda, mysterious mistress of the dresses.

The Age newspaper review of the live show read.. “a unicorn of the stage: a full blown, home grown musical that actually works” and “Tim Finn’s songs range from Broadway-inspired numbers to true blue ballads, from witty patter songs to shares of blues and jazz standards. They’re beautifully integrated with the dramatic action, and the comic lyrics are priceless.”

With words and music by the legendary TIM FINN, don’t miss this terrificly entertaining night of live theatre and music in a classic coming of age tale of a young woman and a young country.
