Villainy is a brand new musical adventure set in the mythical world of the Public Domain. Six of literatures great villains – Captain Hook, Snow White’s Evil Queen, Dracula, Mr Hyde, Madame Defarge from A Tale Of Two Cities and Druzilla, one of Cinderella’s ugly step sisters – are gathered, playing out games and striving for status though they all share the feeling of outrage at how they have been portrayed in the real world since their copyright ran out.
When, without explanation, a young girl named Lily appears and claims to be from the real world they strive against each other and against their own villainous natures as they seek to enlist Lily’s help to enable them to escape the Public Domain and enter the Real World to wreak havoc. However it turns out that Lily may be more villainous than any of them…
With Book, music and lyrics by Craig Christie and the exciting new score arranged by Craig Bryant, this is a romp of diabolical proportions guaranteed to have you laughing and cheering for the bad guys, at least until you meet them face to face on the street.
Be amongst the first to see a staged concert of this brand new musical by Craig Christie (Creator of Eurobeat) featuring an all star cast of Australian musical theatre’s best performers led by Chelsea Gibb (Chicago, Cabaret) and Anton Berezin (Phantom of the Opera).
