Yes I Will Yes!

A brand new play: Molly Bloom, diva and siren, promenades in Melbourne

The MC Showroom, Prahran

Directed by Carl Whiteside with Musical Direction by Emma Austin

Molly Bloom – earthy, vulgar, feisty – is reinvented for the centenary of James Joyce’s infamous banned classic. Forced to choose between a rich adulterer with a vicious glint in his eye and an all-too-familiar husband in Leopold Bloom, Molly reveals herself as never before, the celebrated toast of Gibraltar, Dublin and the world. Bloomsday presents the world premiere of a riotously funny and shockingly frank adaptation of the (in)famous final chapter of Ulysses
