If the great Friends Reunion of 2021 left you craving even more of your favourite sitcom then the news that New York and Las Vegas hit Friends! The Musical Parody is finally coming to Australia should excite you greatly.
Join your six favourite friends at their Central Perk for a night of unstoppable laughs with a new musical that lovingly lampoons the beloved NBC series. Friends! The Musical Parody celebrates the misadventures of our adored group of 20-something pals as they navigate the pitfalls of work, life and love in 1990s Manhattan.
The show will be kicking off in Adelaide on May 4, 2022, followed by seasons in Hobart, Wollongong, Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane, Perth and Melbourne.
Follow Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Joey and Phoebe as they navigate life and friendship, all the while reliving iconic moments from the smash-hit TV show. Friends! The Musical Parody plucks the best moments from the show’s decade long run and recreates the moments through an uncensored, fast-paced, music-filled romp.
And hey, even if you never “got into” Friends (okayyy, then) you are still likely to enjoy the fun and frivolity of this showstopping satire.
“We had so much fun with the show on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane, and are excited to finally tour the show around Australia and share the hilarity with audiences, particularly with the addition of some new venues,” says producer Sam Klingner.
“Come and see Friends! The Musical Parody — whether you’re a Friends fan or not, you won’t be disappointed!”
