If you thought politics in Australia was rough, you ain't seen Jackson yet...
Meet seventh president of the United States: punk-rock politico, Andrew Jackson. He's a kicker of British butt, a slayer of national debt, and he's just busting to show you his stimulus package.
In this 90-minute white-knuckled ride through America's corrupt colonial past, Jackson's gonna wreck the banks, kneecap the courts, evict the natives, and rule the world. And the will of the people won't stop him. Sometimes heroes are a#$%holes.
The surprise Broadway smash of 2010, this rockin' revue is like Saturday Night Live via the History Channel, given the Green Day treatment. This August, for the first time ever, it will claim the Aussie stage - from the people who brought you 'Reefer Madness', '[title of show]' and 'A New Brain'.
