BATTLERS & DREAMERS

Doll pARTS new work

premiered recently as part of 

THE SYDNEY FRINGE FESTIVAL 2016.

BATTLERS & DREAMERS is an original musical comedy by Romy Bartz & Erin Brookhouse.
This homage to 1980's Australian TV soap leaves no cliché unturned complete with retro fashion, music & choreography that takes audiences on a nostalgic trip back in time!
BATTLERS & DREAMERS was Australia's popular but short lived 80's soap. The lost tapes have been discovered and brought to life on stage.
In this episode we follow local country family the Grundys, battling big business while their only daughter with dreams of pop stardom prepares to marry a bad boy with a past he can't recall. 
Audiences laugh and cry with the people of Mainsbridge as they battle their domestic dramas and fight to ignite their dreams!
