The Lucky Country
The Lucky Country is a critically acclaimed new musical about what it means to be Australian. With an original score that pays homage to some of Australia's all-time greats (think Baker Boy, Jimmy Barnes, Kylie, The Seekers, Electric Fields and more), this 65-minute mix-tape of Aussie stories is a wildly entertaining joyride that digs deep into the themes of identity and belonging. Featuring an ensemble of six outstanding performers and a five-piece band (including yidaki), The Lucky Country is a fresh, funny and heartfelt celebration of who we can be as Australians. With Music and Lyrics by Vidya Makan (Hamilton, SIX) in collaboration with director Sonya Suares (Sunday in the Park with George, Into the Woods), The Lucky Country is the smash hit Aussie musical you've been waiting for!
