The Prince and the Prostitute

This little known slice of Australian History tells of Queen Victoria's 2nd son, Prince Alfred, who while undertaking the first Royal tour of the Empire in 1867, is subject to an attempted assassination by a ‘mad’ Irishman who was training to become a Catholic priest.

This topical Musical weaves a tragic love story ( bring a tissue ) -between the Prince and one of his favourite Melbourne prostitutes - within the often humorous and intriguing setting of early colonial Australia’s domestic, political and religious life. It features real ‘larger than life’ characters exhibiting nearly all of the ‘7 deadly sins’! and it will have you wondering just how far Australia and the Monarchy has really moved forward in the last 150 years!

With highly artistic projection design and lighting, experienced Brisbane and Melbourne performers, historical costumes and some beautiful melodies the piece contrasts soft jazz/blues with Rock and Hip Hop/Rap influences which makes for an interesting blend of styles with something for everyone.
