JB Theatre Co: GIA OPHELIA
12 February @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm AEDT

Struggling with infertility and a stalled acting career, Gia wants to play Ophelia one last time.
Gia played Ophelia once when she was younger and fresh on the scene. And now she’s older, and wiser, and ready to give Ophelia one last crack. But she’s not the same youthful Gia she once was. Conflicted by the trials of motherhood, infertility and her youth passing her by, Gia must ask herself where her priorities lie and what it truly means to be a mother and an artist.
Fresh from its award-winning Sydney Fringe Festival World Premiere, Gia Ophelia is back in 2026 at KXT on Broadway.
Written by Grace Wilson (Patrick White Playwright Award Finalist), directed by Jo Bradley (Snowflake), and starring Annie Stafford (Stupid Fucking Bird), Gia Ophelia is a darkly comic one-woman satire, skewering sexism and ageism in the arts.
