INTRODUCING
AUNTY JUDE
"From the moment she strode on stage swathed in red sequins and glittering headdress, she had the audience in thrall."​​​
Theatre Aus
"I laughed, I shoulder-danced, and I think at some point along the way I got sucked into an MLM. At no point could I predict what would happen next, but I trusted Aunty Jude to take me on a delightful journey, and that she did."​
Theatre Travels
Introducing Aunty Jude is a joyful, touching and absurd foray into the world of a woman that doesn’t quite fit in. A comical celebration of a life lived off the beaten track with live cello, clowning and…shoulder dancing.
