Hugh Is Getting Back Onstage
Hugh Jackman is returning to the stage; unfortunately, not in the U.S. Jackman will put on his tux and his Wolverine claws for a new stage show that will tour his native Australia later this year. The “Broadway To Oz†concert show will play major arenas in five cities and is structured as a personal journey through Jackman’s life, from early days in Outback Australia through successes in musical theater and Hollywood stardom. It will mix medleys of work that Jackman has been directly associated with, as well as tributes to classic musicals. Jackman will be backed by a company of 150 musicians and dancers. 150 musicians and dancers? Almost as big as the cast of “Les Miz.”
