Leading ladies Sophie Salvesani (Maria) and Angelina Thomson (Anita) alongside fellow Queenslanders Jade Coutts, Grace Driscoll, Sebastien Golenko and Jake O'Brien will join the next generation of musical theatre stars in the production which will open in Brisbane on 24 July, following a season at Crown in Perth.
And then Benny (Tim Omaji), who in this production canât quite bear to leave his friends behind in a way that feels redeemable, brings everyone together. He was once known as âTimomaticâ, the home-town star of So You Think You Can Dance, and you better believe he breakdances (Luca Dinardoâs choreography is a small and consistent pleasure). By the time we settle into the traditional arrangement of the song, and ensemble member Marissa Saroca takes the vocal line that makes your heart expand, you canât help but be in love with these artists and the community theyâve built together.
