Music and lyrics by Tim Finn

Adapted from the book THE WOMEN IN BLACK by Madeleine St John.

By arrangement with David Spicer Productions. www.davidspicer.com.au

 

A stylish, heartfelt musical with glamour, grit, and plenty of Aussie charm.

Step into Sydney, 1959, a city on the cusp of transformation, where the conservative ideals of the ‘50s are about to collide with the bold new world of the 1960s.

At the centre of this coming-of-age story is Lisa, a bright, bookish school leaver with big dreams and a head full of possibilities. When she takes a summer job at the city’s most prestigious department store, F.G. Goodes, Lisa enters a dazzling world of high fashion, hidden desires, and fiercely fabulous women.

Guided by the enchanting and enigmatic Magda, head of the exclusive Model Gowns department, Lisa is drawn into a new life she never imagined one filled with beauty, independence, and self-discovery.

Full of wit, warmth, and wonder, Ladies in Black is a love letter to femininity, friendship, and finding your place in the world. This heartwarming musical blends timeless storytelling with an irresistible original score by Tim Finn (Split Enz, Crowded House), brought to life under the creative genius of Carolyn Burns and director Simon Phillips (Priscilla, Love Never Dies).

With stunning costumes, soulful melodies, and a touch of 1950s glamour, this is a must-see event for theatre lovers in Rotorua and beyond.

Ladies in Black promises an unforgettable experience brought to life by a powerhouse creative team. At the helm is Director Te Ao Tahana-Prangnell, whose vision and leadership are set to bring fresh energy and heart to the production. Musical Director Richard Anaru ensures every note resonates with emotion, while renowned Vocal Director Rietta Austin adds vocal depth and polish. Choreographer Raukawa Tuhura brings movement to life with dynamic staging that celebrates both storytelling and style. With such exceptional talent behind the scenes, ticket buyers can expect a high-quality, engaging musical theatre experience at Rotorua Musical Theatre.

Don’t miss this magical journey into the heart of change — only at Rotorua Musical Theatre.
