It Is I, Seagull
Presented by Lucy Mellors & Joanne Hartstone
Mar 11 - Mar 23
The Studio
Origin: UK • Australian Premiere
Genre: Theatre and Physical Theatre
Comedy writer and opera singer Lucy Mellors has had enough.
Enough of groveling to all-powerful male directors.
Enough of being judged for eating a biscuit.
Enough of singing by the bras at the back of Marks and Spencer.
Enough of sacrificing her mental health in pursuit of a dream.
Intertwining Lucy’s experiences as an award-winning opera singer with the stories of Valentina Tereshkova (the first woman in space) and Valentina Ponomaryova (almost the first woman in space). 'It is I, Seagull' is a hilarious celebration of self-esteem, joy, failure, opera and space travel.
Fusing opera and comedy, Lucy exposes current and historical sexism to explore what it takes to achieve something extraordinary, and... is it worth it?
