BOPPIN IN THE '50s

Centrepoint Theatre

The Cringeworthy crew is back, this time taking you to the nifty fifties!

Following the smash hits of Cringeworthy ‘60s, ‘70s, and ‘80s, this show is a tribute to the music and culture of a time before the internet, TV, and... Ray Columbus!

Expect a toe-tapping mix of hits from Elvis, The Everly Brothers, Buddy Holly, and more—along with NZ’s very own Johnny Devlin. Complete with energetic dance numbers, witty banter, and retro costumes, it’s a rockin’ trip down memory lane!

Starring Andrea Sanders, Emma Katene, Devon Neiman, and Jared Pallesen. Find out more
