Today I'll be taking you through some songs and stories related to my fifth musical comedy: 'Wayne Kerr High'. It was first performed by Windsor High School students in 1999 in their school hall in Windsor, NSW, Australia.
I have chosen six songs for this episode. Female vocals - Jessica Zamprogno; all instruments and male vocals - me.
LOGLINE
