BELL bottoms, polyester shirts, Elvis sideburns and Farah Fawcett tresses are set to make a comeback with Dick Lee's musical homage to the 1970s, Hotpants.
First produced in 1997 with his ex-wife Jacintha Abisheganadan, Hotpants brings a new cast to this retro tale of three schoolgirls who form a singing group to win a Talentime competition.
The girls' mothers, who happen to be old friends and rivals, cheer them on, while the girls' awkward pubescent urges inevitably lead to romantic entanglements.
