Ticket Options for My Brilliant Career
About My Brilliant Career
Beloved by audiences and showered with five-star reviews, My Brilliant Career was Melbourne’s most in-demand ticket in 2024. “Brimming with abundant heart and soul” (Time Out), this uniquely Australian story has captivated a new generation and will have its Sydney premiere in 2026.
The “outrageously talented” (Australian Stage) Kala Gare plays Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely intelligent and individual young woman in 1890s Australia who rallies against the idea that her ambition should start and end at finding a wealthy husband. Forced to choose between romance and her career, a family and a future that she defines, she decides she’s having it all.
With a joyfully fresh adaptation by Sheridan Harbridge, Dean Bryant and Mathew Frank, expert direction by Melbourne Theatre Company Artistic Director Anne-Louise Sarks, and stunning set and costume design by Olivier and Tony Award-winner Marg Horwell (The Picture of Dorian Gray), My Brilliant Career transforms an iconic literary figure into an effervescent rockstar heroine for the modern age.
