Directed by Emmy-nominated director Sally Aitken and produced by Dark Doris, Frog Productions, and SAM Content for Amazon Studios with significant production investment from Screen Australia in association with Screen NSW, Hot Potato: The Story of The Wiggles is the improbable story of four friends who recorded a one-off album of children’s music in the early ‘90s and changed the global music industry forever.
