REHEARSAL SNEAK PEEK

The team from Sunrise joined us for an exclusive look at rehearsals.

FIRST LOVE IS A BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY

Drawing you deep into the manipulative world of Manhattan’s most tempting liaisons: Sebastian and Kathryn are seduced by revenge and fuelled by passion.

Set out to ravage the virtuous Annette Hargrove and anyone who gets in their way, the siblings find themselves entangled in a web of secrets, temptation, and the cruelest game of all: love.

MEET THE CAST

Musical theatre superstar Kirby Burgess (Dirty Dancing, Bring It On, Barnum) will take on the role of Kathryn, made famous by Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Hallmark heartthrob Drew Weston (Grease, Mary Poppins) will bring a brooding ab-fest as Ryan Phillippe’s character Sebastian.

Kelsey Halge has landed her breakout role as the virtuous Annette Hargrove, the subject of Sebastian’s desires, played by Reese Witherspoon in the film.

Francine Cain (Rock Of Ages, Grease) plays the naive Cecile, made famous by Selma Blair who becomes entangled in Sebastian and Kathryn’s plot of revenge, and participates in ‘that’ iconic kiss.

Other cast members include Euan Fistrovic Doidge (Les Miserables, Priscilla) as Blaine, Joseph Spanti (Dive Club) as Greg, Rishab Kern as Ronald, and Fem Belling (Hairspray) as Mrs Caldwell.

A dynamite, energetic ensemble rounds out the cast with Etuate Lutui, Daniel Erbacher, Sheridan Adams, Morgan Heynes and Darcey Eagle.
