A Fairy Tale Like No Other
Melbourne’s vibrant cultural scene is set to host a unique spectacle this November. ‘Happily Ever Poofter,’ the acclaimed musical parody that has been wooing audiences worldwide, is making its way to The Butterfly Club. This isn’t your ordinary fairy tale. It’s a story about Prince Henry, the sole gay character in his faraway kingdom, and his quest for true love. The narrative cleverly reimagines the Disney classics we’ve all grown up with, but with a humorous and heartwarming twist.
Award-Winning Creativity
The brainchild of actor and activist Rich Watkins, this one-man show has garnered significant praise. It’s not just the witty script or the catchy reworked Disney songs that make this show stand out. It has clinched awards like ‘Best New Musical’ at the London Off West End Awards 2020 and the ‘Standing Ovation Award for Comedy’ at the London Pub Theatre Awards 2020. Watkins’ unique blend of humour and advocacy brings a fresh perspective to the stage, making ‘Happily Ever Poofter’ a must-watch.
Rich Watkins: More Than Just an Actor
Beyond the stage, Watkins is a renowned figure in the London queer theatre community. His commitment to HIV awareness and his role in the BBC documentary ‘That Moment When’ highlight his dedication to important social causes. His work, including his second hit show ‘Reclaiming Harry,’ has toured globally, receiving critical acclaim.
