Sonic Live in Sydney

Sonic Live in Sydney was a ½-to-1½ hour live stage show at the now defunct SegaWorld Sydney, that was hosted in the park. The plot line revolved around many elements from the Sonic the Hedgehog TV show, while a few other elements being from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. The show formerly used actors in costumes, before being replaced with puppets made by puppeteer Philip Einfield, both of which relied on some audience interaction. The show also used several soundtrack pieces from Masato Nakamura's score on Sonic The Hedgehog 2. Little is known of the puppet show version, (excepting the fact that it featured Grounder).

Plot
'''Notice: There is no video evidence of what happened in the show. Only audio.'''

The show starts with Tails being seen piloting a biplane (presumably the Tornado) with Sonic the Hedgehog and Sally Acorn in tow. The biplane shorts out, and then Sonic, Sally, and Tails jump out before the it crashes. Sally scolds Tails, stating she thought that he had said that he knew how to fly a plane. Tails answers back that he did, but didn't know how to land it. The two figure out that they are in Australia. Sonic then appears, with Sally telling him she thought he was dead. Sonic simply tells her he was making a "supersonic survelliance of the surrounds", and then explains the reason for being in Australia: they had previously defeated Dr. Robotnik on Mobius, who then escaped with the Chaos Emeralds and set up his laboratory somewhere in Sydney. Sonic and co. then proceed to search for Robotnik (What Are We Waiting For?). Robotnik is revealed to have built his new base on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and sends for his two cronies (Simply called "Badniks" but are presumably Scratch and Grounder) to set up a telescope. After they goof off with it, Robonik simply takes it and sends them off as he searches for Sonic, in which he asks the audience if they won't tell Sonic where he is, afterwards stating that they are so predictable. Sally, who is still searching, states that Sydney is so huge, and Tails says that they could be searching for Robotnik all over the place. Sonic asks if they've seen Robotnik yet, and Sally says he's disappeared, and then complains that her boots have holes in them. Robotnik overhears her and gets an idea. Sally then reveals that she's managed to tap into Robotnik's computer with an interstellar modem. She locates him on the bridge, and they split up to catch him. Robotnik then schemes to use Sally as bait to catch Sonic (Give Me Chaos), then summons his Badniks as he plans to set out a decoy of one of Sally's ugg boots (he calls them "Egg Boots") so he can sneak up on her while she tries them on, while stating that he's irresistable (much to his Badniks' humor). Sally approaches the bridge (whilst complaining about her feet) then finds Robotnik's ugg boots and tries one of them on as she searches for the other. Robonik pops out of his hiding place and shows her the missing ugg boot. Sally attempts to escape, but then Robonik freezes her with a freeze ray and takes her back to his base. Sonic and Tails, still searching, ask the audience if there's a clue to where Robotnik is. Sonic finds the decoy ugg boot and continues to search. Sally then sings to give away her position to Sonic. Robotnik asks Sally why she loves Sonic and not him. She states that it's because she would never go near him, enraging him. Robotnik threatens that if she continues to insult him, he'll dismember Sonic in front of her eyes. Sonic overhearing this comes up with an idea. Robotnik states to Sally he'll let Sonic go if she states that she likes him. Sally states that it would betray the good name of the Freedom Fighters, and states she would rather jump off a bridge. Sonic appears posing as a doctor named Dr. Sonicstitian, a doctor who specializes in distemper, foot-in-mouth disease, and love potion (really just a liquid sedative called "sleeping juice"). Robotnik falling for it, waits as Sonic prepares the sleeping juice, giving it to Robotnik. Confused, he asks Sonic why he's giving it to him and not Sally. Sonic states that he's closer, so Robotnik drinks the sedative and begins to rattle off how he and Sally will get married and have fat children before falling asleep. Then while attempting to figure out how to free Sally, Sonic accidently shoots her while Robotnik's ray while it's on it's on the "Sing" setting, causing her to sing about her love for Sonic (Thank You For Being You). Then Tails notices that Robotnik had a bomb set and is about to explode. Sonic uses Robotnik's remote on the bomb, revealing the bomb was running off of the Chaos Emeralds and changing the Badniks into "Goodniks". Sonic then states that Sydney will be safe. Robotnik then escapes as Sonic leaves as he sings a reprise of What Are We Waiting For.
