The show has toured the UK and Australia to standing ovations and played sell-out seasons in Shanghai, New York, Edinburgh and the West End of London.  Winner: Best Theatre Award, Adelaide Fringe 2024  ‘Moving portrayal of determination and survival.’ ★★★★ Times  ‘Nothing short of sensational… will make you cheer for her, smile with her and then sting your eyes with tears’ ★★★★★ Broadway Baby  ‘A compelling and heartbreaking story, punctuated with bursts of song.’ ★★★★ Edinburgh Festival Magazine Photo Credit: Rod Penn Photo Credit: Rod Penn Photo Credit: Rod Penn Photo Credit: Rod Penn Prev Next Book tickets Sun 18 Oct 2026 06:30 PM Book now Accessibility icon key:
