Moonshadow’s magical photo feature

The cast of Moonshadow, the brand new musical penned by Yusuf (Cat Stevens) are preparing to give their world premiere opening night performance this evening at Melbourne’s beautiful Princess Theatre on Spring Street.

Featuring over 40 classic songs Yusuf penned as Cat Stevens including ‘Father and Son’, ‘Wild World’ and the title song ‘Moonshadow’, the show has been previewing in Melbourne for the last week.

Our AussieTheatre Melbourne team attended a special media presentation yesterday and the lovely Belinda Strodder from artsphotography.net.au supplied these images for an AussieTheatre photo feature.

Described as “a magical, other worldly fairytale experience” by one of our team, the show will be playing at the Princess Theatre for a limited season, and it is understood that the production will not be touring at this stage.

  • What a shame it will not be touring (at this stage).  It looks fantastic and I would love to experience it.  I do hope they change their minds and it comes to Sydney soon.
