A play with songs.
After winning the hearts of audiences in her 2022 debut, phenomenal NSW South Coast singer/songwriter Kay Proudlove brings her one-woman show Dear Diary to the Shoalhaven as part of a national tour.
Directed by Leland Kean (Lost Boys, As Luck Would Have It), Kay brings her undeniable talent and infectious personality to the stage in this endearing comedy about the agony of growing up.
Take a journey through Kay’s teenage diaries peppered with a collection of intimate and vulnerable stories and songs. From first kisses, girl power, Spice World, and Elijah Wood fan fiction to lost gigs, fond memories, and frayed friendships, Dear Diary is a hilarious, nostalgic and sometimes painful revisiting of our teenage years.
Performed with wry humour, this engaging show asks us to look at what we hold on to in our lives and when it’s the right time to let them go, if ever. Produced with support from Merrigong Theatre Company’s Artist Development Program, with narrative support from dramaturg Phil Spencer (The Smallest Hour).
