My dear fellow Australians… You can’t keep a fierce woman down. Sybylla Melvyn is back, and she’s bolder than ever.

Hailed as a ‘funny, feminist triumph’ (The Guardian) and earning multiple five-star reviews in its sold-out premiere season, the joyous My Brilliant Career returns for a limited encore run.

Led once more by the formidable Kala Gare – and featuring much of the original cast of dynamic actor/musicians – this smash-hit musical earned critical acclaim and five Green Room Awards, including Outstanding Production.

Set in the sweeping landscapes of 1890s Australia, the electric reimagining by Sheridan Harbridge, Dean Bryant and Mathew Frank 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.
