The performance mixes music, costumes, and audience sing-alongs for a fun yet raw experience. After bringing serious cred to the stage, having directed hit friends shows like Mel Maglindsay's motorboats and normal, and Gemma Kharwana's rage bait, she snagged Best Comedy Director Awards at Adelaide Fringe and Fringe Roll Perth, plus Golden Gibbon nods in Melbourne, audiences and critics love it, with a 4.5 star review calling it highly entertaining. Her We Did Good Collective Style fuses physical theater, improv, and clowning for big laughs amid tough topics. It packs an emotional punch while keeping things light.

and her choice for a hysterectomy to stay ahead of it. Expect, costume changes, quirky characters like Miss Piggy and Queen Elizabeth, and some bold moments. It's R18 Plus with nudity warnings, running 60 minutes at the ballet and gluttony until March 22nd. Tickets start at $32. If you're into bold comedy with heart, this one's worth catching.
