Our former PM's all-singing, all-dancing legacy now available on DVD!

Madman presents the highly-anticipated DVD release of K Keating! The Musical, the wickedly clever operatic take on the life and times of our former PM, Paul Keating.

Showcasing a dynamic six-camera shoot of the 2008 Seymour Centre (Sydney) production, Keating! also features remastered audio for DVD, rousing sing-a-long subtitles and a host of extra material; including the additional performance 'Paul Keating's Curtain Call', an audio commentary with writer Casey Bennetto, Mike McLeish (Keating) and Enio Pozzebon (Gareth Evans/keyboards), as well as backstage interviews with the cast and the band.

Keating! Burst into life at the 2005 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Its audacity, lyrical genius, and catchy show tunes took Australia by storm; enjoying sold-out seasons, receiving numerous awards as well as an abundance of rave reviews and standing ovations from audiences moved by its jaunty thrills and relentlessly jovial pace.

Keating! has since screened on ABC2 and has been awarded three 2007 Helpmann Awards for Best Musical, Best Direction of a Musical and Best Male Supporting Actor; and a 2006 award for Best Original Score.
