Dolly's Miracle
Hoard
IN DEVELOPMENT
A funny, farcical and uplifting exploration of the need for human connection...even when there's a hoard in the way.
Whip smart, stubborn and superior, Dolly is also a dedicated hoarder. From the safety of her solitary flat, she leads a fantastical existence in the company of her precious objects.
As the chaos of the outside world interrupts her fiercely guarded privacy, she must face her inexplicable desire for friendship.
Genre bending theatre that weaves a tale for the ages, infused with an urgent plea for solidarity today. It's an absurd, hyper theatrical feast for the eyes with decadent language that reminds us of the potential for human brilliance in silliness. You'll leave with a wry smile and a lot to ponder.
Featuring live music, utter chaos, belly chuckles and free handkerchiefs to wipe away the tears. An emotional rollercoaster of a show.
