Heralded as a 'brilliant new landmark in Australian musicals' (The Australian), The Sunshine Club tells the story of Frank Doyle, an Aboriginal serviceman who has come home from World War II to find that although the wider world may have changed, attitudes back home in Brisbane are just the same. Filled with a defiant energy and ambition for a better life, Frank starts The Sunshine Club, a place where black and white can meet and, most importantly, dance. Here he dreams of a future where he can dance in step with Rose, the girl next door, the girl of his dreams. An award-winning thought provoking, vibrant and joyful night of theatre and music, featuring a talented cast and a 5 piece live band.
