Meet Scott Hastings: ballroom dancer, future champion, rebel. When Scott’s radical dance moves raise eyebrows with the Australian Federation, he finds himself dancing with Fran, a beginner who has no moves at all. Inspiring each other, the couple find the courage to defy both convention and their families – and discover that to be a winner, your steps don’t need to be strictly ballroom… 

Based on Baz Luhrmann’s award-winning worldwide film phenomenon, Strictly Ballroom The Musical features smash-hit songs "Love is in the Air”, “Perhaps Perhaps, Perhaps”, and “Time After Time”, and all new music written by internationally acclaimed artists including Sia, David Foster and Eddie Perfect.

This feel-good ballroom sensation is sure to make for an unforgettable evening under the glitter ball that will send your heart soaring and get your toes tapping!
