Whispering Jack: The John Farnham Musical


  • Roslyn Packer Theatre (map)

John Farnham. King of Pop. Australian hero. The voice of a generation.

But as a cash-strapped, middle-aged father in the midst of an Australian rock revolution, it could have gone a very different way. In an outer Melbourne suburban garage in 1986, Farnham, with a new band and manager Glenn Wheatley, began work on an album and a song called You’re the Voice that would transform his career and their lives. This is the story of an overnight sensation, 20 years in the making.
