AddressTown Hall Theatre, 297 Queen St, Campbelltown
Imagine a musical complete with most of the hit songs of the 1980s - 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go'; 'Girls Just Want To Have Fun'; 'Footloose'; 'Video Killed The Radio Star'; 'Love Shack'; 'Material Girl'; 'Don't Worry Be Happy'; 'Time Of My Life' and 'I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)'.

As well as great popular music, 'Back to the 80s' is a cute comedy set in William Ocean High. It begins with an election for school president between a chick magnet, an ordinary teenager and the school geek. The geek fearlessly predicts the introduction of mobile phones, CD players and powerful computers. He is ignored however so he goes to his young friend Bill G to design more software...who's laughing now!!!

Neil Gooding brilliantly captures the fun, insecurities and nostalgia of the last year of school and shamelessly lampoons a decade we can only now laugh at.

Matinees at 2pm on the Saturday dates are available. Further info - www.ctgi.org
