In the small country town of Tullamana, a farewell party is being held for Lester Lawrence and Evelyn Mcgrath. Lester is leaving to sign a recording contract with the business conglomerate ‘B.I.G.’ and Evelyn is to be his manager.  

Unbeknown to Evie or Lester, the board of ‘B.I.G.’ are up to their ears in insider trading schemes and have set Lester up to be their much needed share market disaster. They unleash the luscious, slinky PR girl Miss Yahwhohow on to the gullible Lester. Upon arrival our hero is seduced and bamboozled into choosing Miss Yahwhohow over Evelyn as his manager.

Evie & The Birdman is a wild, totally original piece of contemporary, pop musical theatre with a very memorable and varied score. It’s fast moving and aimed at high school students, young adults and all those who can remember being young.
