The Show

The good girl, the quiet boy, the cool kid and the princess meet as adults at their primary school reunion. Abigail now grapples with motherhood, Bryce's grown up world is collapsing, while Cody and Daveena fight over the choices that tore them apart. Can they reset their lives by going back to school?

A funny and touching musical which asks the question: What do we wish we’d learned in school?

The Cast

We are very excited to introduce to you our wonderful cast.

Soprano Shaan Antunovich was featured on TVNZ’s Stars In Their Eyes, and more recently has graduated with a BPA from NASDA. She now brings her beautiful voice and presence to the role of Daveena.

Scot Hall toured NZ this year as a guest artist with Operatunity’s Razzle Dazzle, and here creates the role of Bryce.

Vicki Millar herself plays the part of Abigail, having performed in both classic and self-penned musicals in Australia and the UK.

And Michael Murphy, runner up in the first NZ Idol competition, energises the stage as rock musician Cody.
