Meet Ruby Semblance, a 21-year-old idealist. She believes in art, music and angry choreography. Ruby is the lead singer/songwriter of Kitty Litter. Not Kitty Litter 'the band' mind you - according to Ruby, an "Onstage Conceptual Art / Music Oriented Happening".
One fateful day Kitty Litter take the stage to be greeted by a sold-out audience… of small children. It turns out their furious protest song "Bananaland" has accidently become a hit on the kids' music charts!
Is Kitty Litter destined to become the next Wiggles? Spoiler: yes. And it's our total delight as the audience to witness them rail against this destiny. Do they allow themselves to be consumed with the notion of 'selling out' or do they buy into their accidental 'kids' band' fame?
BANANALAND is a celebration of the glorious absurdity of following an impossible dream, featuring a knockout score by Kate Miller-Heidke and her collaborator Keir Nuttall - the award-winning song writing team behind Muriel's Wedding The Musical and multiple platinum selling albums.
It is directed by industry giant Simon Phillips, internationally renowned for his work on large-scale musicals including Priscilla Queen of the Desert, and Ladies in Black and famed for his stunning visual style and innovative staging.
