Altar Boyz Are Bringing Sydney To Its Knees
It’s the longest running, most critically acclaimed off-Broadway musical in years and now Altar Boyz is heading to Sydney with an all-Australian cast.
Some seriously funny songs, fab choreography and catchy melodies aplenty, Altar Boyz is the holy inspiring musical comedy about five small town boys in a struggling boy band, looking for their big break.
The tight harmonies and energetic choreography never let up with styles veering from disco to Latin, hip-hop to gospel and rock to soaring ballads.
Director Kate Gaul said, “I’m delighted to have on the creative team Musical Director Robert Gavin and talented young Choreographer Antony Ginandjar.”
Not only did it win the Critics Circle Award for Best Musical in 2005, it was also nominated for seven Drama Desk Awards in the same year and was honoured with two Drama League Awards. Altar Boyz is now in its fourth record breaking year in New York.
The Aussie cast includes Cameron MacDonald (Matthew) Dion Bilios (Mark) Tim Maddren (Luke) Jeremy Brennan (Juan) and Andrew Koblar (Abraham). The Australian Premiere season commences at the Seymour Centre on Wednesday 11 June 2008.
If this piece from You Tube is anything to go by, this show is going to pack the houses in!
