Belvoir is thrilled to present Big Girls Don’t Cry, a sharp and celebratory new play written by and starring Gumbaynggirr/Wiradjuri woman Dalara Williams (Balnaves Fellow, STC’s The Visitors) on from 5 – 27 April.
Directed by Ian Michael (STC’s Stolen) and featuring a cast of seven including Stephanie Somerville (Stolen), Megan Wilding (The Rover), Bryn Chapman-Parish (Nefliix’s Heartbreak High), Mathew Cooper (Coranderrk), Nic English (Outhouse Theatre Co’s Consent), Guy Simon (Jacky), and Williams herself, Big Girls Don’t Cry pays respect to a generation that led the way and to Black women who won’t take a backward step.
Redfern 1966. Cheryl, Lulu and Queenie are young and life is glorious, full of hilarity and joy, even if jobs are precarious, the police harass them, and racism seeps into everything. But as they gear up for the biggest night of the year – the Deb Ball – their lives, Redfern, the country are all about to change.
