The musical that inspired a generation to don legwarmers, leotards and headbands is back! Fame The Musical comes to Altona City Theatre.
Fame is the inspirational story of a diverse group of talented students studying at New York City's High School for the Performing Arts during the early 1980s. With humour and insight, the show explores the issues that confront many young people today. The highs and lows are too much for some, but the kids' determination to find greatness shines through.
Fame is a fun and energetic show - from the students' auditions at the beginning, through the rap, ballet and breath-taking contemporary dance numbers to the fantastic finale, Fame continues to "live forever" - particularly for those who aren't quite ready to forget those flying splits or the legwarmers just yet!
