Sydney comedian Steph Broadbridge has resolved a legal dispute with breakdancer Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn over a parody musical based on the infamous Olympic performance.

Raygun’s lawyers argued that her stage name and the silhouette of her iconic kangaroo pose were protected intellectual property. Despite this, Broadbridge announced she would proceed with a different ‘completely legal parody musical’. Tickets for Breaking: The Musical are on sale in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide.
