Description An Australian musical by Alex Harding. "Kings Cross - the nightclubs - the sailors - the grog - the girls. The boys! Alex Harding's cult musical tribute to bohemian Sydney in the 40s and 50s returns to the new theatre stage for one night only! Narrated by the ghost of the outrageous true-life drag queen Lea Sonia, OHK tells the story of a 'family' of outsiders determined to pursue love and life on their own terms, battling the stifling restrictions of a conservative society against the backdrop of a world in turmoil".
