The Cringeworthy crew are back, ready to transport you to the bangin’ 1990s!
Following the success of Cringeworthy 60s, 70s and 80s, this show pays homage to NZ music and culture in the last decade of the 20th century.
Expect a ‘rad’ mix of local and international hits delivered with snappy dance moves, scintillating vocals and a generous dollop of cheesy comedy.
The 90s was a decade bursting with diverse musical genres, from boy bands and girl groups to MMMBop and hip hop, the swing revival (Mambo #5), country (Achy Breaky Heart) and re-releases of iconic hits such as To Sir With Love, Silly Love Songs, Unchained Melody and Get Down on It (Can you dig it?)
On the local scene, legends such as Crowded House, Dave Dobbyn, The Exponents, Margaret Urlich, Supergroove, True Bliss, Ardijah, Southside of Bombay and The Chills gave us heavenly pop hits that have become Kiwi classics.
In some ‘fly’ outfits, Cringeworthy: The 90s packages the hits of the decade (including Can’t Touch This, Weather With You, Love Shack and How Bizarre) with some unforgettable fashion trends including flannel shirts, baggy jeans, tracksuits and chokers. These energetic styles are woven together with a witty narrative reflecting the lifestyle, news events and culture of the time; smelling like Teen Spirit!
As we hurtled towards the 21st century, the change in the air was undeniable. Who could forget surges in the zeitgeist like Y2K, The Macarena and ...The Wiggles!
What’s the time Mr. Wolf? Time to grab your ticket on this time machine!
Nostalgia invites you to relive a decade that still resonates today. Get ready to party like it's 1999!
