Cruisin’: The Musical (rated PG) is an exciting new musical with songs in the style and spirit of the pioneers of rock n roll. It is filled with comedy, pathos and catchy musical numbers that will leave you enthralled right ‘till the end. Set in the late 1950’s it stars VINNIE RUSSO, a 17 year old torn between his love for music and his family traditions. His father thinks that VINNIE is wasting his time with rock and roll music instead of concentrating on his Italian heritage and a solid career in the family smallgoods business.

Conflict comes to a head when MARIA, VINNIE’S younger sister, leaves home to be with PHIL (the guitarist and lead singer in the band Cruisin’) and VINNIE joins the band. It takes courage and determination for their mother and an old friend JOHNNY ANGEL to convince their father that this “crazy rock and roll music” may not be such a bad thing after all.

Eventually, the traditional family values stay intact and the RUSSOS come to terms with the Australian way of life. Music becomes the instrument of reconciliation, bridging the generation gap and creating a new cultural harmony and optimism for the future.

Please come along and experience the exciting enthusiasm only a good old fashioned "school play" can provide. Featuring an all current student cast (rare these days!) and lots of dancing, singing and fun for the whole family.
