"THE LEADING MEN" - "ENTERTAINER of the YEAR" FINALISTS 2011 at The Australian Event Awards
THE LEADING MEN!
The only way you get to see Australia’s most talented musical theatre stars is to go to a musical right?... Wrong!
STARSTRUCK!
Book The Leading Men for your next event and your audience will be entertained by some of the biggest stars in Australian musical theatre! Comprised of four extraordinarily gifted performers who each played legitimate 'leading roles' in Australia's most loved musicals, this act has been described by Sir Michael Parkinson as "as good as anything I've ever seen in the UK".
If you’ve been to a musical in Australia in the past 10 years, chances are you’ve seen one, if not all of them.
ONE SHOWSTOPPERS AFTER ANOTHER.....
Performing the songs that made them stars, the show features a string of broadway showstoppers from the world’s most popular musicals including Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, Singing in the Rain, A Chorus Line, Beauty & the Beast, Joseph & the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, Chess, Guys ‘n Dolls, Cabaret, Buddy, Spamalot, Wicked and Hairspray.
Hand-picked from an elite group of high calibre, seasoned performers, The Leading Men have impressive resumes and are all recipients of prestigious inudstry awards.
JIMMY BARNES in ITALIAN?
Sophistication all the way from their white tuxedo jackets to the red roses on their lapels, the boys have been compared to suave European opera act ‘Il Divo”. In keeping with that style, the highlight of the show is a humorous medley featuring hit songs by legendary Australian artists as diverse as Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, Peter Allen, ACDC and Slim Dusty. The twist is that this medley is sung in Italian!
The Leading Men have performed hundreds of shows for royalty, heads of state and celebrities from all industries and regularly perform at weddings and private celebrations.
THE SOPHISTICATION OF A "LEADING LADY"
The show can be further enhanced with the inclusion of a Leading Lady. Adding grace and elegance, the presence of a female star allows for the inclusion of some of musical theatre's most loved duets from "All I Ask of You" to "You're the One That I Want".

The Leading Men are the perfect addition to your conference, gala, incentive or special event and always leave audiences wishing there was time for more!
