Nancye Hayes and Todd McKenney are also pals, chums, bosom buddies – and together, they bring their aptly-named show Bosom Buddies to Cessnock Performing Arts Centre on Wednesday, April 11.

In this new show, these legends of Australian theatre reflect on their stage careers and their lives on- and off-stage.

They sing, dance and reminisce about the lows and the highs – telling stories never told, and showing video footage never before seen.

This true story is, in turns, moving, poignant and hilarious.

As part of each performance, the audience is invited to ask the questions they’ve always wanted to ask – answers guaranteed.

Hayes is an actor, dancer, singer, choreographer and director who began her career in My Fair Lady in 1961 and established her name in the title role in Sweet Charity in 1967.

Since then she has sung, danced and acted her way through a cavalcade of successes and into the hearts of Australian theatre-goers, and has received three Lifetime Achievement Awards, three Helpmann Awards, four Green Room Awards, two Glug Awards and a Mo.

McKenney is a critically-acclaimed and award-winning singer, dancer, actor and all-round entertainer, who is perhaps best-known as the controversial judge on Dancing with the Stars, and his towering performance as Peter Allen in the Australian production of The Boy From Oz.

The show will start at 8pm. Call into the CPAC box office, phone 4993 4266 or visit cessnockperformingartscentre.com.au for tickets.
