The Sunshine Club

Back by popular demand, this feel good Australian musical is written and directed by awarding winning playwright, proud Noonuccal Nuugi man, Wesley Enoch AM.

Set in 1946,   the joyful and acclaimed musical The Sunshine Club, tells the story of  Aboriginal soldier Frank Doyle, who is just returning home to Brisbane after serving in WW2, to find that, while the world may have changed, the same attitudes  and prejudices still exist at home. But this only fills Frank with a strong desire to change things for the better by setting up The Sunshine Club. A place where all people are welcome to come together, laugh, romance and dance the night away as Frank sets out to win the heart of Rose, the girl from next door. The Sunshine Club is a gloriously energetic, thought provoking and above all entertaining night of theatre.

Written and Directed by Wesley Enoch.

“The openness and joy radiating from The Sunshine Club is certain to make your spirits soar.”  Sydney Morning Herald

“An unashamedly feel-good musical”  The Australian
