Consider yourself a bona fide Friends fan? Here’s a show you’ll want to add to the calendar.
The New York and Las Vegas hit Friends! The Musical Parody is making its way through Australia as we speak, and now it’s Perth’s turn to get a taste in September.
The show celebrates the iconic misadventures of your favourite group of 20-something pals as they navigate work, life, and love in 1990s Manhattan with belly grabbing, cheek hurting hilarity.
We’ll set the scene:
It’s a seemingly typical day in New York coffee shop, Central Perk, until an unexpected runaway bride enters the picture and kicks the whole gang out of second gear.
Against this background, Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Joey, and Phoebe navigate life and friendship while reliving favourite moments from the smash-hit TV show. Friends! The Musical Parody plucks the best moments from the show’s decade-long run and recreates the moments through an uncensored, fast-paced, music-filled romp.
Basically, it’s all the stories you know and love in a stage explosion of fun.
Directed by Dash Kruck, the stellar cast filling the very big shoes of the much-loved roles include acclaimed musical theatre performer Annie Chiswell (Shrek, Mamma Mia!) as Monica, Belinda Jenkin (50 Shades! The Musical Parody, Top Gun the Musical) as Phoebe, and Eleanor Macintyre (The Hello Girl, Sweet Charity) as Rachel.
WAPPA graduate Maverick Newman (The King and I, Spring Awakening) plays Chandler, Conor Putland (Once On This Island, Dogfight) is Joey, and Tyran Stig (The Drowsy Chaperone, Little Shop of Horrors) makes his professional debut in the role of Ross.
