Australian Musical Theatre Festival: Broadway Showstoppers

23 May @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm AEST

Boasting more than 40 events over five days, the Australian Musical Theatre Festival returns to Launceston. Carmel Dean’s Well Behaved Women, which shines a light on some of history’s trailblazing women, launches the festival, while the Opening Night Gala features a cast led by Jarrod Draper. The centrepiece is a production of The Frogs by Stephen Sondheim, Burt Shevelove and Nathan Lane. In another highlight, Delia Hannah reflects on her life in Seeing Is Believing, in which she is joined by the festival’s Artistic Director Tyran Parke. Following a sold-out performance last year, the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra returns for the concert Broadway Showstoppers with singers Draper, Hannah, Lisa Crosato, Nadine Garner, Rob Mallett and Lorinda May Merrypor.

Following a sold-out performance in 2025, the Australian Musical Theatre Festival and Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra reunite for Broadway Showstoppers.

Featuring the power of a symphonic orchestra alongside some of the nation’s brightest musical theatre stars, Broadway Showstoppers journeys from Rogers and Hammerstein to Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cole Poter to the Gershwins and more. Lighting up Launceston’s Albert Hall with the biggest hits from the world’s greatest shows, this one-night-only performance is the ultimate, toe-tapping celebration of musical theatre.

Having received rave reviews and standing ovations in 2025, Broadway Showstoppers transports audiences to the heart of New York City and the world’s musical theatre mecca.
