CALAMITY JANE presented by Queensland Theatre, Bille Brown Theatre

Welcome to the rough-and-tumble town of Deadwood, where swaggering sharpshooter Calamity Jane is mocked and admired in equal measure. Deadly with a whip or a quip, her bluster and bravado mask a longing for something deeper. Cabaret daredevil __Naomi Price__ (*Drizzle Boy, Ladies in Black*) slips into Jane’s trail-worn boots for this rootin’ tootin’ unruly and unpredictable ride. Join Jane’s piano-fuelled posse and pull up a stool at one of the on-stage saloon tables to be part of the action! This revival has all your favourite numbers, including *“Secret Love”* and *“The Black Hills of Dakota”* but this ain’t __Doris Day’s__ *Calamity Jane*, no siree. This stripped-back reimagining shucks off the buckskin and brings a barrelful of dirt and grit to the classic musical. Hailed as “outstandingly clever… gut-bustlingly funny [and with] an extraordinarily generous heart” (The Australian), saddle up and ride before dawn ‘cause these here tickets will fly out the door faster than you can crack a whip!
