Let Me Be the Cool Aunt

She’s classy, she’s fun, her brother happens to have a son – Sophie Banister is the cool aunt! Following her journey moving across the world while her brother becomes a dad, Sophie asks the real questions: how does one even make friends as an adult? Why does everyone care about gender reveals? And which of Donna’s friends from Mamma Mia is more my aunt energy? Tanya or Rosie? With original songs, looped guitar and vocals, Sophie brings high energy satire to a musical comedy hour bursting with tales from another Aussie abroad.

Following her journey of moving to the other side of the world while her brother becomes a Dad, Sophie considers the real questions: how does one even make a friend as an adult? Why do I care that I am missing a gender reveal when I am living my first #eurosummer? More importantly, which of Donna’s friends from Mamma Mia is more my “aunt energy”? Am I a Tanya or a Rosie?

With all original party anthems, jingles and looped guitar and vocals, this is a show for the overwhelmed nomads, the delulu dreamers and those not quite ready to let go of the idea of life as Fergie’s hit 2006 song ‘Glamorous’.
