Hailed as a ‘funny, feminist triumph’ (The Guardian) and earning multiple five-star reviews for its sold-out premiere season in Melbourne, the joyous My Brilliant Career now embarks on a limited, exclusive Australian tour. Ready to blow Wollongong away, it’s a big-hearted musical for all who dream of a bigger, more brilliant life.

Set in the sweeping landscapes of 1890s Australia, this electric reimagining transforms Miles Franklin’s literary heroine into a singer-songwriter for this very moment. Unapologetically ambitious, Sybylla Melvyn is wholly uninterested in the future society expects of her. Instead, she marches to the beat of her own drum, challenging class, gender and family to find her own voice.

Led by the formidable Kala Gare (Six the musical) – and featuring a dynamic cast of actor/musicians – this smash-hit musical earned critical acclaim and swept Melbourne’s Green Room Awards, including winning Outstanding Production in 2024.
