Rachael Beck and David Hobson are in Perth for the stage show Chitty Chitty Bang Bang which opened last night at Crown Theatre.
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has Australian audiences and critics raving! Sensational sets, stunning special effects, Ian Fleming’s irresistible story, and an unforgettable score by the Sherman Brothers (Mary Poppins) all add up to a blockbuster musical that everyone will love. Starring David Hobson, Rachael Beck, Shane Bourne, Jennifer Vuletic, Peter Carroll, George Kapiniaris and Tyler Coppin as The Child Catcher.
This multi million dollar production remains the longest running musical ever to play at the London Palladium and was nominated for three Olivier Awards, five Tony Awards, ten Outer Critics Circle Awards and four Drama Desk Awards. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang holds the Guinness World Record for the most expensive stage prop in the history of British Theatre!
Both David and Rachael are loved for their roles in musical theatre with David also having a distinguished career in Opera and Rachael capturing hearts as a young television actress in the early nineties. Both were also involved in Channel Seven’s It Takes Two where they played the part of vocal and performance coaches.
