A highly entertaining true story about a group of incredible 70's 'housewife' activists. The Bush is a "frequently show-stopping" (The Wee Review) solo theatre show by "born storyteller" (The West Australian) Alice Mary Cooper that brings to life the inspiring true story of 13, 1970s “housewives” who fought for a decade to save a bushland in Sydney—kickstarting Australia’s Green Ban movement and influencing environmental action worldwide.
Told with humour, heart and physical flair, this one-woman, multi-character performance celebrates a pivotal feminist and environmental triumph. Audiences meet union leaders, politicians, suburban battlers and unlikely allies in a show that is comedic, "highly accessible" (The List), and profoundly relevant in today’s climate crisis.
