The Wollongong team behind the satirical Gladys COVID videos present a new musical journey about Gladys Berejikian, ‘The Woman Who Saved Australia’.
After debuting Gladys in a rock ‘n’ roll press conference in the Black Summer Rock Opera Watch and Act, a crack team now takes you through the early life of Ms. Perfect, from her flawless leadership through two disasters, until her biggest disaster, Dodgy Daryl from Wagga Wagga.
With music and lyrics by local ABC presenter Nick Rheinberger, Tia Wilson returns as Gladys in several colourful blazers.
It’s got big rock numbers, epic ballads, Armenian matchmaking, tap dancing and even more musical press conferences.
Get in line for their first home show after the world premiere at Sydney Fringe!
