Originally created for Caroline O'Connor, Bombshells has undergone an innovative makeover uniquely for this production featuring three dazzling and talented West Australian actresses.

Hugely entertaining, Bombshells navigates the emotional terrain of six larger than life women who are each at a crossroad.

A stressed-out yummy mummy; a backtracking bride-to-be; a geeky cactus cultivator; a widow who finds pleasure in the unexpected; a diva newly returned to the stage; and an all-singing, all-dancing teenage talent contestant.

Funny, clever and often touching, Bombshells will engage both female and male audience members through its simplicity and honesty.

Starring Jenny Davis, Michelle Fornasier and Christie Sistrunk
Directed by Alan Becher
Presented by QUT Gardens Theatre and Perth Theatre Company
