“A show from the heart, bursting with wonderful music & humour”
Glam Adelaide

Hell bent on finding the true song of her soul, Lil Miss Mel has boldly journeyed from the light-up dance floors of tragic 80s disco to the dizzying heights of Adelaide’s classiest Bingo halls. And now, having Nutbushed, bopped and Bus-Stopped her way to semi-obscurity and middle age, she ponders the big questions: How do I become my most authentic self?
