6 – 17 February @ Kings Lar, His Majesty’s Theatre •
Presented by Faff & Sass Productions •

Peter Allen was the quintessential entertainer: women loved him; men loved him but they didn’t quite understand why. Before there was Adele or Glee, it was Peter Allen songs of love that held that slightly camp place in people’s hearts around the world, even when you didn’t know he wrote them. What drives a man to make such a mark? What are his songs really about? And how did he accidentally write our unofficial national anthem?

Returning to Perth for FRINGE WORLD 2018, join Matthew Hadgraft (Matt) at Kings Lair at His Majesty’s Theatre and take the fabulous journey from rural NSW to the top of the world and back, with all the sites, the songs, and all the feels along the way.
