A New Australian Musical.
It’s 2005. Everyone’s favourite (fictional) game show ‘Race Against The Clock!’ has been on air for 40 years.
As the anniversary episode draws closer, the former prize models are unceremoniously thrown together, but a long-buried rigging scandal might be just the thing to encourage them to step out of the shadows. This high-energy, glitzy development showing, from writers Joseph Simons and award-winning Class of Cabaret alumna Millicent Sarre, continues Adelaide Cabaret Festival’s legacy of being the birthplace of new Australian musicals (Shane Warne, FANGIRLS, and The Fig Tree).
...intelligence, wit and a rare song-writing gift to be celebrated.
