Based on the hit film of the same name that starred Paul Hogan and Michael Caton, Strange Bedfellows was the highest grossing Australian film of 2004 and went on to win Best Film at the Toronto World of Comedy film festival.
Strange Bedfellows - The New Musical will star John Wood (Blue Heelers) and Peter Cousens (The Phantom of the Opera, Miss Saigon) as the unlikely couple, Ralph and Vince, who find themselves searching for a way to clear one hell of a tax bill left by Vince’s bitter ex-wife.
With headlines proclaiming equal rights for same-sex couples, Vince sees the answer! What starts as a simple little lie, unleashes one hilarious adventure of discovery!
Commissioned by Instinct Entertainment in association with McLaren House Strange Bedfellows boasts an all original score by composer John Foreman (Australian Idol) and will bring together the formidable creative talents of renowned director Roger Hodgman (MTC) Musical Director Kellie Dickerson (Wicked, Dr Zhivago) and Choreographer Dana Jolly (The Producers).
The success of such home grown hits as The Boy From Oz, Shout and Priscilla demonstrates that Australian audiences are keen to embrace their stories told with humour, warmth and a little dose of razzle dazzle.
