The Boy From Oz is the most successful Australian musical ever and the first to make it to Broadway.

A musical biography/tribute to the late, great Peter Allen, The Boy from Oz tells his dazzling, funny and heartbreaking story, from humble beginnings growing up in the Australian outback through a meteoric rise to fame and international stardom. Allen became a superstar in the 1980s, best known for hits like “I Honestly Love You,” “I Go to Rio” and for winning the Academy Award for the theme song from the film Arthur, as well as having been discovered by Judy Garland, marrying her daughter, Liza Minnelli, and his record-breaking runs at Radio City Music Hall.

The Boy From Oz is a class above all other ‘jukebox’ musicals. The late Nick Enright skillfully wove his plot around the life and complexities of Peter Allen. It leaps, as does Peter himself from past to present and back to past all within the familiar context of one of his energy-packed concerts.
