He said, "Broadway to Oz’ is a dream come true. This is the show I’ve always wanted to bring home". Hugh will be backed by 150 musicians and dancers as the concert shows a mixture of projects that Hugh has been associated with. It will also be a tribute to classic musicals. The focus will be on Hugh’s early days in Outback Australia.

Sunset Boulevard and Beauty and The Beast were the first projects that Hugh took up. He met his wife Deborra Lee Furness during Corelli, an Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s TV drama series. He was then part of Australian independent films Paperback Hero and Erskineville Kings. The Hollywood success like The Prestige, The Fountain, The X-Men franchise, Wolverine and Les Miserables then followed.
