What's On

Well-Behaved Women
 

How would Cleopatra, Mary Magdalene, Virginia Woolf, Frida Kahlo, Julia Gillard, Billie Jean King, and Malala Yousafzai sound if we heard them sing their thoughts? 

Well-Behaved Women, by Carmel Dean is a musical feast where legendary women are brought to life through powerful and often hilarious songs, that celebrate the ways in which their behaviour helped them make history. 

After all, as Pulitzer-Prize winner Laurel Thatcher Ulrich said, ‘Well-behaved women seldom make history’.

  • Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.
  • Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
