The Sapphires
A production by Christine Harris and HIT Productions
The Sapphires is one of the Australia’s best-loved stories. Winning multiple awards as a play, film and soundtrack album.
Four young Aboriginal women from regional Australia, who like singing country music, suddenly get the chance to change their tune and their lives. Wearing sequins, armed only with microphones they find themselves trying to spread joy in the hell that is the Vietnam War.
The Sapphires is a funny, heart-warming tale inspired by the true story of four Yorta Yorta Women, who sing classic soul hits against the backdrop of personal change and massive social upheaval. It is an energetic, fun, and engaging play that affirms life and the realisation of dreams.
Performers include: Lorinda May Merrypor,
Jade Lomas-Ronan, Oliver Wenn and Anthony Lim
Writer and Director: Tony Briggs
Musical Director: Nathanial Andrew
Band Leader: Hamish Jetson
Set and LX Designer: Mark Howett
“Their voices are superb and the audience enjoys their
harmonies with opportunities to hear the beauty of the individual voices with songs including: Love is Like a Heatwave, Yellow Bird, Respect, My Boyfriend’s Back, Chain of Fools and many more.”
