One of the finest, most awarded Broadway musicals ever written comes to life on our grand harbour-side stage! Escape to flashy Manhattan in the 1950s: a larger-than-life world of showgirls and gangsters, set against the backdrop of Sydney’s glittering harbour.

Expect big laughs and even bigger song and dance numbers in this energetic new staging, directed by Shaun Rennie, with a magnificent stage design by Tony Award-winner Brian Thomson.

Angelina ThomsonMiss AdelaideHad a glorious time seeing the show with the beautiful backdrop of the harbour with the harbour bridge and opera house. Not to be missed! Music to keep you singing and dancing all night long
My daughter & I thoroughly enjoyed this show last night from 2nd row centre stage seats! It was energetic, creative & colourful, performed by a super talented cast
Get venue, seats were okay, thank goodness the weather was perfect, and fantastic free shuttle bus service from Domain Parking to the venue.
The weather was splendid for a night out at Hand Opera - we could not have picked a better night., The backdrop of the Harbour Bridge, Opera House and Luna Park was breath taking on this night. The Show as just magical, the cast and crew fit the bill. The band was fabulous, Sound perfect. The Set was amazing. From the time of arrival at the Venue, the service was the best we received - it was my second visit to Handa Opera. The food generally was okay but service was prompt and efficiently executed. The best part of the night was the cheerful volunteer photographers and the Red Carpet. All the staff on duty were courteous and offered assistance at all times. Long queues disappeared very quickly as the facilities were well provided and managed with speed and efficiency. I can't wait to go to the next show held at Hand Opera.
2 1/2 hrs of wonderful entertainment. Loved it all. Traffic navigation, and exiting well organised. Thoroughly recommend.
We were a party of 4. Arrived early to enjoy a lite meal and drinks with the beautiful views afforded by this venue. We attempted to enjoy a lite ( all be it very expensive) meal at the Northern Cantina. We ordered a variety of food including salad, which was gross looking and soggy, a lasagne and osso buco which were inedible but still resulted in gastro even after only a few bites. The hot chips and olives were an ok option. Really not acceptable offer. The show, however, was fabulous and congratulations to all the performers who were spectacular and so professional in some rainy conditions. A fun and well arranged event. An enjoyable evening but next time will eat before coming to the venue. Drinks only!!
