Acclaimed Australian composer/lyricist and pianist Monique diMattina presents concert highlights from her new stage musical, STELLA: The Miles Franklin Story.Monique will be joined by two of STELLA’s star cast members for this intimate McClelland preview, before the musical debuts in theatres later in 2025.
Although the Miles Franklin Award is Australia’s most prestigious literary prize, most Australians are unaware that Miles was a woman, let alone the details of her extraordinary life. Weaving songs, stories and Franklin’s own words, STELLA follows Franklin’s Snowy Mountains childhood to fame as the young author of My Brilliant Career, years battling for women’s suffrage in the USA and UK, WWI field work, creative struggles and legacy as a trailblazing champion of Australian art, conservation and culture.
