Twisted Broadway 2011 Set List & Summary

Twisted Broadway 2011 was held last night, July 18th at Fed Square's BMW Edge.
Twisted Broadway is primarily a fundraiser, with all money raised going towards Oz Showbiz Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The concept is unusual but inspired, with Males singing Musical Theatre songs written for females, and vice versa.
Initiated in Australia last year, this year's event proved to be on a much larger scale than last year's cabaret at Red Bennies, with producers opting for a theatre venue.

Twisted Broadway is sure to become a staple on the theatrical calendar, displaying the creme de la creme of Australia's Musical Theatre talent, though not necessarily the biggest names, while raising money for charity. The evening will be remembered for a long time by anyone lucky enough to be in attendance. The full set list can be found below:
