The Fat Lady Sings

When Analisa Bell (2007 ITA Finley Award Best Actress winner - The Vagina Monologues) took a trip to her mum’s country to “discover her roots”, she was bombarded with comments like ‘oh, you’re so fat now’, ‘when are you due (to give birth)?’ and ‘we don’t have XXL here’… some girls may have broken down in a flood of tears, others may have bitten back in an angry rage, but what did Analisa do? She laughed, and decided to put together a show! In her first one-woman show, The Fat Lady Sings, Analisa teams up with musical genius Tim Cunniffe, to take a closer look at what women think about themselves, about each other, about men and, most importantly, what women want. Inspired to “change the world” and have you laughing along the way, Analisa has put together an array of songs from old-time musicals to the pop hits of today, which she’ll perform in the guise of a range of characters. A night of good music and laughter - The Fat Lady Sings, 8.30pm April 3 to 5, Downstairs At the Maj, His Majesty’s Theatre, Hay St Perth. Tickets thru BOCS Ticketing 94841133 or bocsticketing.com.au (search by show title).
