Featuring the popular musical numbers Lambeth Walk, Leaning on Lamppost and Me & My Girl.
This limited season production will star Bobby Fox & Kirby Burgess with Nathan Carter, Erin James, Nat Jobe, James Lee, Marney McQueen, Jess Voivenel and Simon Burke (cast subject to change).
“I adored Me and My Girl when I saw it in Sydney in the mid-nineties and it’s a thrill to re-introduce this delightful comedy to new audiences, and those who want a trip down memory lane alike. It’s got a wonderful score, fabulous gags, and we’ve assembled a top rate cast. A bright and breezy night at the theatre, it will have you in stitches and tapping your toes in equal measure,” said director Trevor Ashley.
Established in 2010, Neglected Musicals presents musical theatre that has never or rarely been seen in Australia. Presented with scripts in hand, and with piano accompaniment after only a day’s rehearsal.
“What a fantastic cast, I so pleased that we will be presenting this wonderful show and I can’t wait to see what Trevor Ashley can do with just one day,” said producer Michelle Guthrie.
