In June 2013, “one of the most ambitious productions to come out of Australia” is set to premiere in Melbourne. The King Kong musical is the work of Global Creatures, the Sydney-based company responsible for the Walking With Dinosaurs ‘Arena Spectacular’, and will run for 12 weeks at the Regent Theatre.
The line-up of musical talent creating the score includes French electro trailblazers Justice. The stage show will feature a giant Kong, currently being built in a Melbourne warehouse, alongside projections, an orchestral score and circus performers.
