Saddle up, ladies. Magic Mike is coming to town. And he’s bringing his army of ab-tastic dancers with him.
Half-naked men, live on stage, possibly even a surprise encounter with Mr “Magic” himself. It’s hard to say no to that!
Time to act like Ginuwine and Jump On It.
If you’re a fan of the shameless Magic Mike series, then this live version of the movie is sure to tickle your feathers. It’s been hailed as nothing less than a thrilling, sexy, live dance and acrobatic spectacular and is co-directed by Captain Magic himself – none other than Channing Tatum.
Although Channing doesn’t get his gear off onstage (BOOOO), he is known to make an appearance at his shows so you make sure you wear your best bra for any autograph signing encounters.

We highly recommend passing the parenting duties to dad, rounding up your girls and indulging in an evening of half-naked men gyrating on stage.
Heck, we’ve even got a little cheeky sneaky peek sizzle reel below, just to set the stage:
Channing promises to “blow our minds” and, well, okay then, we’re in
According to Channing,
From the first moment we thought up Magic Mike Live, we always dreamt of bringing it to Australia. The movies did so amazingly here, we knew we had to figure out how to raise our game.
It took a few years for it to all come together but…man…did it come together. We have something planned for Australia that is going to blow your minds.”
What can we expect from the show?
The performance is described as a “modern strip show we deserve” and includes a “360-degree whirlwind of dance, comedy and extraordinary acrobatics”.
The cast includes 20 world-class performers and 15 of the most talented male dancers in the world. Even the choreography is meant to be ace with the lead choreographer working with legends like Pink in the past.
But, let’s get down to the most important questions – Can we get in on the action?
YES. Yes, we can! Audience participation is part of the show so you could be selected to hit the stage, take a seat and experience all the Magic! According to Ticketmaster,
Audience members are never guaranteed to be selected for the audience participation numbers, but wearing trousers certainly increases your chances of being pulled on stage.”
Buy ALL the Trousers
Plus, you can purchase a $40 backstage Meet & Greet which includes a professional photograph, a Magic Mike cocktail, a souvenir program, a VIP lanyard, and a backstage meet & greet with select members of the cast immediately following the show.
So, will you be getting in on the action? After all, they’re “not just stripping. [They] are fulfilling every woman’s wildest fantasies.”
I mean, how can we resist?
