Ian Stenlake, one of Australia’s most popular performers, will star in the Sydney premiere of Uked! – The first play-along ukulele musical, with the Bondi Theatre Company from June 18-28, alongside singer songwriter and actor Josephine Birch.
Uked! is Melbourne playwright Jane Cafarella’s love letter to the humble ukulele.
It’s the hilarious and poignant story of Karla, played by Birch. Dumped on her 50th birthday by her violin playing boyfriend, Karla buys a ukulele and joins a dating site, learning that love and the ukulele have a lot in common.
Audience members can sit back and enjoy the show OR they can bring their ukes and sing and play- along. A screen displays all the chords and lyrics for the sing-along songs.
