Calling All 90s Kids: Round The Twist The Musical Is Coming to Brisbane!
strange things happen
Have you ever, ever felt like this? Strange things happen when you’re going round the twist!
Okay, now that that’s out of the way….Get ready, because something incredible is coming to Brisbane’s QPAC! On 12 November, Round the Twist the Musical is lighting up the QPAC Playhouse stage, and it’s set to be a blast from the past.
Let your inner child come out and play because this brand-new Australian musical by Paul Hodge is bringing back the quirky charm of the beloved 90s TV show Round the Twist. Directed by Simon Phillips, the show will whisk you away to an old lighthouse where single dad Tony Twist and his kids – Pete, Linda, and Bronson – are in for a wild ride. They’re up against the greedy Gribble family, who want to turn their home into an Aqua-World-Casino-Burger-Joint-Adventure-Park!
Simon Phillips promises a night packed with mind-bending fun that’s proudly Australian. And even though a lot has changed since the show first aired, Paul Jennings’ stories still capture the essence of growing up, which is why they’ve stayed so beloved.
The musical will cover 24 episodes from the first two seasons of the series and has Paul Jennings’ stamp of approval, thanks to Hodge’s dedication to staying true to the original spirit. Paul Hodge, who’s written the book, music, and lyrics, is thrilled that a new generation will get to experience the fun and absurdity of Round the Twist.
Round the Twist The Musical will premiere in Brisbane, Paul Jennings’ hometown, connecting new audiences with his fantastical stories and continuing QPAC’s and Queensland Theatre’s tradition of delivering exciting stage productions that celebrate creative talent and engage with Brisbane.
