A musical theatre work which combines popular, folk, spoken and operatic voices with elements of contemporary performance to create rich vocal portraits of the first women of white settlement at Port Jackson.
This acclaimed musical theatre work draws on shipping logs, newspaper excerpts, etchings and letters and features a cast of Australia's finest singers and musicians. Using the anthology of poems, Botany Bay Document, Greenwell explores the emotional weight and humanity that a musical interpretation can elicit from a poetic text.
