SUMMARY:Fun Home
DESCRIPTION:After smash-hit seasons on Broadway and in London\, Fun Home comes to Christchurch’s The Court Theatre in a soaring\, brand-new production.\nWinner of three Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Original Score\, and a finalist for the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Drama\, Fun Home  has been hailed as a “beautiful\, heartbreaker of a musical” (New York Times) and “one of the best new musicals of our era” (LA Times).\nFun Home  is a heartfelt story about coming out and coming of age based on Alison Bechdel’s pivotal graphic novel.\nAfter the unexpected death of her father\, Alison is forced to confront his secrets that come to light. Shifting between past and present\, we meet Alison\, a successful graphic novelist; college-age Alison on the cusp of self-discovery; and precocious child Alison\, who plays in coffins instead of sandboxes in the family’s Bechdel Funeral Home.\nWith a score that ranges from exuberant 70s pop to aching melodies and dissonant harmonies of characters longing to be known\, Fun Home is a refreshingly honest\, wholly original musical about seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.

SUMMARY:We Will Rock You - Wellington
DESCRIPTION:WE WILL ROCK YOU\, the world’s favourite rock musical featuring 24 of Queen’s greatest hits\, is coming to Wellington for the very first time in 2024. \nWith a hilarious script by Ben Elton\, WE WILL ROCK YOU rivals the scale and spectacle of the band’s legendary live performances. \nBrought to Wellington by the Capital Theatre Trust and G&T Productions – the same companies who’ve just celebrated a sold out season of Wicked and last year’s Les Miserables – WE WILL ROCK YOU will again offer audiences a world-class theatrical experience. \nFirst premiering at London’s Dominion Theatre in 2002\, WE WILL ROCK YOU was seen by six million people over 4600 performances during an astonishing 12-year run\, becoming one of the most successful musicals in West End history. It also found unprecedented popularity around the world\, playing to a global audience of 20 million across 28 countries. \nWE WILL ROCK YOU tells the story of a globalized future without musical instruments. A handful of rock rebels\, the Bohemians\, fight against the all-powerful Globalsoft company and its boss\, the Killer Queen; they fight for freedom\, individuality and the rebirth of the age of rock. Scaramouche and Galileo\, two young outsiders\, cannot come to terms with the bleak conformist reality. They join the Bohemians and embark on the search to find the unlimited power of freedom\, love and rock!

SUMMARY:Matilda the Musical
