Synopsis

In the old CFA hall, on the outskirts of town, five women gather,
to sing, to connect, to share food & daily life updates…
Having splintered from their original choir (on a matter of principle), Barbara, Mack, Savannah, Totty & Aseni, with latest recruit Peter along for the ride, have got themselves a new name, a space to rehearse in & a public debut booked.
All they need now is to right the wrongs of the past & to find a song that pairs perfectly with the local winery’s Pinot Grigio!
In the final work from beloved Australian playwright, Aidan Fennessy, we are gifted with this funny, uplifting & moving celebration of community, culture, beauty & love.
It’s a play with songs in it, a warm hearted hug of a show, a tribute to the power of friendship & the tonic of music. If your heart is breaking, the best thing you can do, is sing…together.
