From the creator of sell out shows 'Holt! The musical' and 'Jacintegrating' comes an NEW AND IMPROVED version of the Sydney Comedy festival show sure to have you flash dancing like you were at a jazzy funeral.
Jacinta Gregory is a musical comedian who has been diagnosed with manic depression. To escape she journeys to her version of the 80s - cyndi lauper, dirty dancing, the berlin wall: With the help of a live band, join her for an hour of synth-filled songs about mental illness, love and John Hughes
It will be bizarre, there will be legwarmers and by GOD will there be synths. Girls just want to have fun! THAT'S ALL THEY REALLY WANT.
"With skill and style Gregory alludes to, and educates about, her mental health struggles in a funny, warm show with a quirky edginess." - Sydney Arts Guide
"And so we have 80s Nostalgia Sad Hour, a culmination of this in which Jacinta Gregory immerses herself in the gaudy, colourful aesthetic of a past generation, to create some very contemporary musical comedy" - theatre travels
