WALTZING THE WILARRA
About
Written & Composed by David MilroyDirected by Brittanie Shipway
Charlie, Elsa and Fay take you on a musical journey back to 1940s post-war Perth. Against a backdrop of curfews, and the fear of arrest for consorting, White and Black manage to form their own club. For a night they can forget their worries and experience rare happy times singing, dancing, listening to music, and with a little luck... romance. Forty years on, as the club faces demolition, our three characters meet once again to stage a musical reunion and protest in an attempt to save their old stomping ground. As the trio reflects upon loves lost and found, old arguments and alliances re-surface. Dark secrets and ghosts that have lingered for more than half a century are revealed, and we discover that reconciliation is more than saying sorry.
Featuring a stellar cast from stage& screen with 6 First Nations actors and a live band.
Length: 2 hours 30 mins plus interval. Meet & Greet after opening show.
