Dolly's miracle hoard

⭐⭐⭐⭐

'...very touching theatre.'
Sydney Arts Guide

First presented through The Flying Nun Artists Residency at Brand X

in February 2025

Tending to her precious hoard, Dolly is safe from outsiders; until the new neighbour arrives.

Isolated from the world in her tiny flat, Dolly tends to her precious hoard. When a persistent new neighbor arrives, Dolly is dismayed to find herself yearning for human connection. She builds her hoard higher and higher, only to find her defences falling down around her.
