A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, Starring Geoffrey Rush, Will Close January 6 in Melbourne

The funniest musical comedy to hit the Melbourne stage in decades, A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, is now in its final three weeks as it must close on January 6, 2013.

Producer John Frost is thrilled with the audience and critical response. "We are so glad Melbourne has embraced this glorious Sondheim masterpiece and its all-star cast led by the dazzling Geoffrey Rush. Even Stephen Sondheim himself travelled to Melbourne to see the show and loved it! From the moment Geoffrey appears to open the show, audiences are laughing uproariously and coming back to see it a second and third time. Don't miss your last chance to see this riotous comedy. And people under 30 can see it for the low price of $49.90 in these final weeks."

Academy, Tony and Emmy winning Geoffrey Rush returns to his true home on stage with an all-star comedy cast including Shane Bourne, Hugh Sheridan, Magda Szubanski, Gerry Connolly, Christie Whelan, Mitchell Butel, Adam Murphy and Bob Hornery, playing at Her Majesty's Theatre until January 6 only.
