CREATIVE CUTS - Broadway to Buderim

The music and magic of Broadway are coming to Buderim this April, as some of the Sunshine Coast’s best local singers take to the stage for a spectacular celebration of musical theatre.

The Best of Broadway 2, produced by well-known local choir directors Kim Kirkman and Lincoln Scott, will showcase standout vocalists from across the Sunshine Coast and South-East Queensland in a lively evening of show-stopping favourites.

Both directors are respected figures in the Coast’s thriving choral scene, leading several community choirs and helping develop local vocal talent. For this production they have assembled a cast of experienced performers drawn from the region’s vibrant performing arts community.

Audiences can expect a colourful mix of classic and contemporary musical theatre, with songs from favourites including The Sound of Music, Les Misérables, Wicked, Chicago, Guys and Dolls, Brigadoon, Rent, Kiss Me, Kate and Dear Evan Hansen.

“With so much talent on the Sunshine Coast, we wanted to create a show that celebrates local performers and the music people love,” the producers said. “These are the songs that inspired many of our singers to fall in love with musical theatre.”

The production also highlights the strength of the Coast’s growing arts scene, where community choirs, theatre groups and musicians continue to bring high-quality live performances to local audiences.

“People don’t need to travel to the big cities to experience great theatre,” the producers said. “There is incredible talent right here in our region.”

The Best of Broadway 2 will be performed at Buderim War Memorial Hall across four performances from April 17–19. Tickets are available via the TryBooking website.
