About this show
Girlhood in the Bathroom is a new Australian musical set entirely in a club bathroom on New Year's Eve. Amidst the chaos of the female bathroom, five 20-something-year-old girls navigate love, friendship and the truths about the world – through passionate scenes and original songs! The show explores a simple but revealing question: why do girls always go to the bathroom together? With a mix of humour and emotional honesty, this show invites audiences to laugh, cry and recognise themselves in the stories. This show is going to leave you reminiscing longer than the bathroom line!
