After a sell-out season at the Sydney Opera House in December, adults-only panto Little Orphan trAshley comes to The Comedy Theatre in Melbourne for a limited season with an all-star cast.
Starring the extraordinary Trevor Ashley (recently seen in his solo show I’m Every Woman at the Famous Spiegeltent), joined by Melbourne’s own favourites Rhonda Burchmore and Gary Sweet, with SYTYCD’s Rhys Bobridge, Little Orphan trAshley “is solidly stocked with wicked lines and cheap shots” (Sydney Morning Herald).
From the writing team that brought us the smash hit Fat Swan (Phil Scott and Trevor Ashley) and the director of Smoke & Mirrors (Craig Illot), Little Orphan trAshley is a guaranteed night of hilarity.
Trevor Ashley is Fannie, a 10-year-old inmate of the Sutherland Shire orphanage for talented children run by washed-up boozy matron Miss Trannigan (Rhonda Burchmore). But she is a girl with a terrible secret: she’s not yet all woman. But to get her long-overdue gender reassignment, she’ll need the help of multi-millionaire acclaimed photographer Daddy Warhorse (Gary Sweet) as well as her trusty ex-sniffer dog Bullshit (Rhys Bobridge).
Featuring songs, audience participation, and more parody than you can poke a stick at, this brand new adults-only panto will have you in fits of laughter… and have you wishing that you too could be adopted by a sexy bald millionaire.
