Melbourne International Comedy Festival proudly presents

Flo & Joan starring George Fouracres

One Man Musical

  • United Kingdom

Exclusive to Melbourne!

Following sell-out runs in London’s West End and at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe, One Man Musical by Flo & Joan is making its Australian premiere at Melbourne International Comedy Festival!

Award-winning musical comedy duo Flo & Joan present their own original one-man musical about a very renowned and real-life gentleman.

An icon of the musical theatre world finally turns the spotlight onto the one story he's yet to tell – his own.

Starring George Fouracres (HBO’s The Franchise, Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre Hamlet) as ‘the man’ and Flo & Joan as ‘the band’, and directed by Georgie Staight (Operation Mincemeat).

'A triumphant spoof of Andrew Lloyd Webber? It's better than Cats...a sensational comic presence' ★★★★ Sunday Times

‘They’ve just crammed in jokes. And those jokes are made even funnier by Fouracres’s absurdly overblown performance… brilliantly written, superbly performed and surprisingly thoroughly researched.’ ★★★★★ The Stage

‘By rights, this theatrical tour de force deserves a 38-year run in the West End and similar on Broadway.’ Rolling Stone

‘A helter skelter of a show. The script is slick, hilarious.’ ★★★★★ Musical Theatre Review

 ‘It's a winning concoction... Audiences will love it.’ ★★★★ The Guardian (UK)

★★★★  The Telegraph (UK)

★★★★ Broadway Baby (UK)

★★★★ The List (UK)

★★★★ Chortle (UK)

Suitable for audiences 15+

Language – mild language
