Amity Dry: The Perfect Life is a beautiful, wholesome, musical theatre production that takes the audience through the many stages and phases of women's lives, from relationships, babies, careers, breakdowns, grief and everything in between. It's funny, honest and incredibly relatable, with heartfelt storytelling woven through powerful songs and moments that will have you nodding along in recognition. This is a full two-and-a-half-hour theatre experience, and it's very different from the shows we've come to know and love from Amity over the years. This is wholesome, thoughtful and deeply human. Even more impressive, the show is completely original, with Amity Dry writing both the script and the music herself. Packed with talent and heart, it’s a brilliant reminder of the quality of local arts. Bring your best friend, your mum, even your nan. You'll laugh, smile and probably shed a tear as you recognise so many moments of life on stage. A gorgeous celebration of women supporting women and a show that will leave you feeling seen, understood and very glad you came.
