Shane Warne The Musical Updated to 2013
Eddie Perfect heads up the cast In this new concert style presentation of Shane Warne The Musical (featuring Lisa McCune as Simone Warne, Shane Jacobson as Terry Jenner, Verity Hunt-Ballard, and Christie Whelan Brown as Liz Hurley) to re-imagine the musical as an epic, hero-worshipping, PR spinning, celebrity-slaying, satirical homage, which will play two performances at Melbourne's Hamer Hall on June 20 and 21.
Adelaide Cabaret Festival performances from June 5 to 9 at Her Majesty's Theatre had previously been announced.
Simon Philips (Love Never Dies, Priscilla Queen Of The Desert) directs this new production with Eddie's updated score musically directed and arranged for a 24-piece orchestra by Iain Grandage (Tim Minchin Vs The Orchestra, The Secret River).
With brand new songs spanning the hits, misses and public romance of Shane's recent past, Shane Warne the Musical 2013 swings from the hilarious to the genuinely moving; this is Eddie Perfect writing and performing at his sharpest, most savage and wonderfully inventive best.
Shane Warne The Musical premiered in 2008, becoming an instant hit, picking up Helpmann, Green Room and Premier’s Literary Awards - and a glowing endorsement from Shane Warne himself.
"It’s a very funny show, extremely entertaining. Enjoy it." Shane Warne
