New Australian musicals
Apr. 2nd, 2022 12:11 amSo I was looking up musical trailers on YouTube, trying to figure out if Fangirls is something I want to see or not. While I'm browsing, the algorithm suggests an original song called "Hugh Jackman" by Vidya Makan.
She gave an awesome performance as Catherine Parr in the Australian production of Six. I had no idea she was also a songwriter. After watching this clip, I was like, "Somebody give her a musical to write!"
And then! Someone did!!!
"Hugh Jackman" is from a new show by Vidya Makan called 'The Lucky Country' that she is writing in collaboration with Sonya Suares. The show is currently in development for its professional debut in 2023. 'The Lucky Country' is a concept musical exploring Australian identity and belonging.
I'm still undecided about Fangirls. But I am so there for The Lucky Country.
