- Sydney - Melbourne
'THE LEADING MEN' have been honoured with not one but two nominations for 'ENTERTAINER of the YEAR' appearing as finalists at the prestigious Australian Event Awards 2011 and 2012
The only way to see Australia’s most talented musical theatre stars is to go to a musical right?... Wrong!
Comprised of bonefide 'stars' of musical theatre of the Australian and
international stage, each member of 'The Leading Men' has been
hand-picked from an elite group of gifted artists who have all
played not one
but several leading roles in the world's
most-loved musicals and have won awards in every category of Australia's
Entertainment Industry.
If you’ve been to a musical in Australia in the past 10 years, chances are you’ve seen one, if not all of them.
One Show Stopper after another...
A Broadway-inspired extravaganza of show-stopping solos and ensemble
performances featuring musicals such as Phantom of the Opera, Les
Miserables, A Chorus Line,
West Side Story, Jesus Christ Superstar,
Aspects of Love, Hairspray and Wicked to name a few.
Jimmy Barnes in Italian or a musical tribute to the Women of the World?
Sophistication all the way from their white tuxedo jackets to the red
roses on their lapels, the boys have been described by Sir Michael
Parkinson as as good as anything
he's seen anywhere else in the world
and compared to suave European opera act ‘Il Divo”. In keeping with
that style, the highlight of the show is a humorous medley featuring hit
songs by legendary
Australian artists as diverse as Jimmy Barnes, John
Farnham, Peter Allen, ACDC and Slim Dusty.
The twist is that this medley is sung in Italian!
They can also perform a medley of musical theatre show stoppers and
torch songs traditionally sung by female stars such as
Hopelessly Devoted to You, All That Jazz, I don't Know How to Love Him,
Mama Mia,
Memory, Lady Marmalade
and so on...sung instead by males these songs take on a whole new
meaning! The Leading Men
have performed hundreds of shows for royalty,
heads of state and
celebrities from all industries and regularly perform at weddings and
private celebrations.
THE SOPHISTICATION OF A "LEADING LADY"
The show can be further enhanced with the inclusion of a
Leading Lady.
Adding grace and elegance, the presence of a female star allows for the
inclusion of some of musical theatre's most loved duets including
All
I Ask of You, You're the One That I Want, The Prayer and Time to Say
Goodbye.
