Downtown: The Mod Musical


  • National Academy of Performing Arts (NAPA) 3 Stevenson Court Burleigh Heads, QLD, 4220 Australia (map)

NAPA ENSEMBLE PRODUCTION

With its irresistible blend of hip-swivelling hits, eye-popping fashions and outrageous dance moves, ‘Downtown the Mod Musical’ takes audiences back to the music, style and freedom of the 1960s.

Our leading ladies chronicle the dawning liberation of women, from the rise of Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark and Cilla Black as independent women with major careers, to their American counterparts, redefining themselves in the face of changing attitudes about gender.

With a shimmy and a shake, the songs are tied together by hilarious sound bites from the period - from ‘60s advertisements to letters answered by an advice columnist who thinks that every problem can be solved with a ‘fetching new hair style and a shade of lipstick.’
