The Beep Test
30 APRIL - 10 MAY | THEATRE WORKS
by conor neylon and jackson peele
'The class of Year 7C have been training hard for the annual Beep Test. Hearts will be
broken, friendships destroyed, and someone may sh*t themselves!’
The Beep Test is a comedic, fast-paced, over-the-top new Australian musical that dives into the drama and chaos that was school Beep Tests! The musical follows four determined students and one far too enthusiastic PE Teacher of Class 7C as they compete for the number one place, whatever the cost!
This dynamic comedy from Australian musical theatre writers Neylon and Peele has been the recipient of numerous awards across the country, including the Green Room Award for ‘Best New Australian Musical.’
Incorporating tight choreography, a witty script and impressive vocal performances, ‘The Beep Test,’ captures the essence of school life and competitive spirit, resonating with audiences who were fortunate or unfortunate enough to be subjected to this Australian tradition!
