What A Man’s Gotta Do
Written and performed by Andrew Horabin

When Adam’s Bucks spill out of a strip joint and right into Lucy’s Hens, there’s trouble. She says he’s never gonna grow up. Adam protests. Lucy gives him 24 hours to prove he’s a man – or the wedding’s off!

Muzza and Gazza are not much help. They tell him she’s just a sheila and sheilas change their minds. But she’s not changing it back. And the hour of the wedding is fast approaching, leaving Adam asking “What’s a man gotta do to be a man?"

With no formal initiation or rites of passage, these three young blokes must forge their own path into manhood. How lost will they get on the journey? What risks do they take in trying to initiate themselves? And will they make it back in time?

Spend a night with comedian and award-winning songwriter Andrew Horabin, laughing about sex, work, marriage, mateship, booze, coming of age, being a Dad and getting old without necessarily growing up.

And find out What a Man’s Gotta Do to be a man in the Gold Coast.


brilliant... a sharp, satirical, witty one-man musical aimed at adults... up-to-the-minute, relevant to each community and very, very funny... you’ll wind up happier, better informed into modern bloke’s thinking – and awed by a unique talent.

Five Stars! ***** ... rip-roarin’ rootin’ tootin’ adult musical... The humour was not only sustained for the show, but for hours afterwards. Fantastic, but you will be lucky to get a seat!
