The Boy from Oz

This is the dazzling, funny and touching story of the great Australian entertainer Peter Allen, from his humble beginnings to his meteoric rise to fame as an international star.

Singing in country pubs from age 11, Peter Allen survived family tragedy to become a local TV star at age 16. Discovered by Judy Garland, he married her daughter Liza Minnelli and went on to become a beloved performer and an Oscar-winning songwriter.

Featuring many of his most-loved hits such as I Honestly Love You, I Still Call Australia Home, Don’t Cry Out Loud, Tenterfield Saddler and the show-stopping I Go to Rio, secure your seats early and get ready to be swept away by the dazzling, funny and moving story of the life of legendary Australian entertainer and songwriter, Peter Allen.

Presented by Encore Theatre Company, the international smash hit musical comes to the Princess Theatre this October for a strictly limited season.
