Manly Music

[JakeOfAllTrades]

Sweeney Todd and The Phantom of the Opera. Keating! The Musical as well (a local Australian production by Company B, which is unapologetically an extravaganza of Aussie political history in the 90s).

Sweeney Todd is a musical that transcends gender, but Phantom and Keating are a bit wobbly in the manly stakes (there's a dance number featuring Alexander Downer in fishnet stockings, not to say anything against people who are into that, it's just that it's Alexander Downer, foreign minister being portrayed in reference to a "Guess Who's Legs" competition he was in)
