The final season of Keating! played at the Seymour Centre, Sydney in August 2008.
Casey Bennetto’s Keating! burst into life at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in March 2005. The comic genius of the lyrics, the audacity of the conception, the beat and swing of the music sent its sold-out audiences spinning into the night. The production won all available awards at the Festival and the pattern was repeated in a short five night season at the Sydney Opera House in August 2005 followed by sold-out seasons in Adelaide, Brisbane and Darwin in 2006. Since then Casey has teamed up with Neil Armfield to make his outlandish and biting musical bigger and better than ever and the show has taken Sydney by storm with a nine and a half week sold-out season at Belvoir St Theatre (Nov 06 - Jan 07) and no less than three sold out seasons at the Seymour Centre in 2007. Keating! will now embark on a national tour in 2008, returning yet again to the Seymour Centre in July/August. Casey Bennetto’s scathingly hilarious lyrics and glee-inducing array of musical styles tear through the reign and tragic fall of the Placido Domingo of Australian politics. Part French farce, part Greek tragedy, and all Australian history, “the musical we had to have” transports you back to a time less politically grey. Get your Keating! merchandise here!
