Another Spectacular Three Production Year for Showbiz Christchurch

Showbiz Christchurch returned to the Isaac Theatre Royal stage in full force for 2016 and pulled off the perfect hat-trick of Mamma Mia!, Hairspray and Evita to full houses and rave reviews. Showbiz have announced their 2017 season and it is set to be another stellar three production line up of unmissable theatre and music.

The 2017 year begins in March on a fabulous big bus called Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. This extravagant musical has over 500 outrageous costumes, 200 magnificent headdresses, a spectacular new bus custom built in Christchurch, and a hit parade of dance floor classics including ‘Don’t Leave Me This Way’, ‘I Will Survive’, ‘Hot Stuff’ and ‘Shake Your Groove Thing’.

From 26 – 28 May the Isaac Theatre will be alive with the sound of Rodgers and Hammerstein. This full scale concert – with a live Broadway-style orchestra, vocal soloists and a chorus of over 100 from Showbiz and NASDA – will feature songs from Oklahoma!, The Sound of Music, The King and I, South Pacific, Carousel, amongst others.

In September the soulful Broadway musical comedy Sister Act will have audiences feeling divine. Based on the hit Whoopi Goldberg movie, Sister Act features original music by legendary composer Alan Menken, who wrote the music for Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and Little Shop of Horrors.

Tickets for all three shows are on sale from Thursday 24th November. Showbiz will be repeating the popular full season discount offer which was so successfully introduced for the 2016 season. Discounts of 10% for one show, 20% for two and 30% when booking for all three performances will be available on all Premium and A Reserve seats until 31st January 2017.
