Edges A Song Cycle - Sydney Production **OPENS MARCH 25**

Edges is a new musical song cycle which explores the boundaries, limitations and journeys of young adulthood. Seen through the eyes of one of Sydney's freshest young directors, Benita de Wit, the show follows the journeys of four burgeoning young adults as they experience a vast array of universally classic 'coming of age' questions and life events. There’s laughter and attitude aplenty! Written and composed by the 2007 Jonathan Larson Award recipients Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Edges is no typical musical production. In 18 thematically-linked songs presented by an ensemble cast of four, it explores a variety of themes including peer pressure, false expectations, career drive, family negativity and narrow-mindedness. The cast features exciting young talents Helena Wehbe, Christie Wykes, George Youakim and Keegan Joyce who are sure to deliver a performance guaranteed to pull at the heart-strings, evoke the laughter of recognition and revive memories of what it’s like to be teetering on the edges of youth, love, commitment & risk. With musical direction by Stephen Doorey together with scenic design by Alex Duffy, costume design by Alanah Koedam and lighting design by Alex Mair, the production promises a thrilling and spectacular experience! Performances take place March 25 – April 1, Monday - Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm and 8pm at the Parade Studio, Parade Theatres complex (NIDA), 215 Anzac Parade, Kensington. Tickets $39 for adults and $29 for concessions and students and are available through Ticketek (13 28 49 or www.ticketek.com.au) or at the door on the night (if available). “An impressive collection of character-driven songs…The light pop and theatre-styled music is accompanied by well-crafted lyrics that tell interesting stories, score some solid laughs and touch some lovely emotions…” – Broadway World By arrangement with Hal Leonard Australia Pty Ltd Exclusive agent for Music Theatre International (NY) DISCLAIMER: Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in these pages.
