On Top of the World is a musical about Tracy Clifford, a teenage surfer and marine biology prodigy from Australia. Awarded a scholarship to study at California State University, Tracy balances her academic pursuits with her passion for surfing. Before leaving, she competes in the Bells Beach International Surfing Competition, where she meets Errol, a charming American surfer.

 

As Tracy navigates her budding relationship with Errol and her passion for marine life, she discovers a way to communicate with marine creatures using AI technology. Tracy qualifies for a prestigious competition in Hawaii, where her innovations and surfing skills take centre stage. However, she faces challenges as a woman competing in a male-dominated sport. With the support of Errol and her friends, Tracy defies expectations and pushes for equality while using her platform to raise awareness about environmental issues.

 

Along the way, she confronts personal dilemmas and forms a deeper connection with herself and the world around her. The story culminates in a thrilling surf-off, in which Tracy, disguised as Errol, triumphs in the men's competition but is disqualified for being a woman. Undeterred, Tracy uses the media attention to amplify her message about protecting marine life. The musical blends adventure, romance, and environmental activism, highlighting Tracy's journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
