Featuring global icon Olivia Newton-John (Grease, Xanadu) in her very first movie, and following the adventures from the beloved Adventures of the Terrible Ten, FUNNY THINGS HAPPEN DOWN UNDER is a musical delight that will have every member of your family singing, dancing and laughing along in this instant Australian classic.

A group of children in an Australian country town are trying to raise money to save their clubhouse. After a series of disastrous (and hilarious) attempts, they stumble across a scientific discovery involving mineral water and rainbow coloured goats, and the children realize that they have a major discovery on their hands.
