Dolly's Miracle Hoard

Delightful, thought provoking theatre. Magic realism, at its most magic.

Tending to her precious hoard, Dolly is safe from outsiders; until the new neighbour arrives. Isolated from the world in her tiny flat, Dolly tends to her precious hoard. When a persistent new neighbour arrives, Dolly is dismayed to find herself yearning for human connection.

Set in in a dilapidated building in southwest Sydney, the show explores Dolly’s solitary, fantastical existence. As the chaos of the outside world creeps in, she loses all control and is forced to either accept her new friends or perish.

This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its arts funding and advisory body, is supported by the NSW government through Create NSW, and The City of Sydney.
