Freaky Friday
Chapel Off Chapel, Prahran
September 2022
When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just 24 hours before Mum’s big wedding to put things right again.
The Story
Freaky Friday is a hilarious, contemporary musical comedy based on Mary Rodgers’ 1972 novel and the hit Disney films.
In this show mother and daughter discover what it means to be a family by living each other’s lives, if only for a day.
With a script by Bridget Carpenter (Friday Night Lights, Parenthood) and a tuneful pop-rock score by Pulitzer Prize-winning duo Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey (Next to Normal, If/Then), this warmhearted, funny and touching show is perfect for audiences of all ages.
