Music, Lyrics & Book by Millicent Sarre

An hour-long antidote to our collective weariness.

Being a human in 2026 is exhausting. We’re all a little burnt out, and in this fresh musical comedy, Millicent Sarre seeks to understand why.

From a sold-out and extended season at Adelaide Fringe in 2026 where it won Weekly Best Cabaret and the prestigious Frank Ford Commission for 2026, this unforgettable original cabaret explores burnout, mental load and capitalism through powerhouse vocals, poignant social commentary and (always consensual!) audience participation.

 

★★★★★ “Razor-sharp comedy and compassionate insight” InReview

★★★★★ “Clever, self-aware and kind…Millicent’s songwriting is superb” Glam Adelaide

★★★★★ “For anyone who cares deeply and is exhausted by it” Lia Loves
