Bombshells

Five women. Countless confessions. One unmissable comedy-drama.

With singing, dancing, comedy and the joys of sheer honesty, Joanna Murray-Smith's acclaimed play Bombshells is a journey from crisis to hilarity, via the thoughts of a group of women all linked by more than just their proximity to the edge; a nervous bride-to-be, an exhausted young mother, a widow with a yearning for the unexpected, a broken-hearted cactus lover and a feisty teenage talent-quest competitor.

Joy, drama, crisis, fear, revelation – there are times where you have to remain cool and calm on the outside. The inside, meanwhile, is a flailing monologue of personal pep talks, perish-the-thoughts and perpetual panic. Bombshells strips back the masks we wear to reveal the things that sometimes we'd just love to say out loud.

“A blast of magnificent writing... a tale of every woman, beautifully told, insightfully directed, perfectly performed and creatively staged.” - Peter Wilkins, Canberra Critics Circle
