Set in a decrepit rehearsal hall, down and out writer/director Billy Palmer (writer/director of the musical fiasco Apocalypse Wow!) attempts to keep his musical adaptation of Top Gun from crashing and burning, despite a quarreling cast, a sketchy ex-Navy Seal producer, and a love triangle that threatens to destroy the entire project.
Top Gun! The Musical is one of the most successful shows in the history of the Toronto Fringe, received Dora Mavor Moore Award nominations for Outstanding New Musical and Outstanding Performance, received a Canadian Comedy Award nomination for the Pretty Funny Comedic Play category, and has had critically acclaimed productions in Canada and the U.S.
