Description The all Australian hit, Muriel’s Wedding the Musical, is set to delight Sunshine State audiences as its Queensland season premieres at Queensland Performing Arts Centre’s (QPAC’s) Lyric Theatre.

This multi-award-winning musical produced by Global Creatures officially opens on 21 September and runs until 26 October 2019 in a strictly limited six-week season.

Winner of five Helpmann Awards (2018), seven Sydney Theatre Awards (2018), an Awgie Award (2018), the 2018 David Williamson Prize and an ARIA Award Nomination (2018), Muriel’s Wedding the Musical celebrated its world premiere in Sydney in November 2017.
