Claire Healy: (Get a) Real Job

  • ★★★★

    “A frenetic ride through Healy’s head."

    — Adelaide Advertiser

  • “If Kate Bush had worked on her jokes and taken herself a little less seriously, she could have been Claire Healy.”

    — Herald Sun

Claire has never had a real job.

With a resume that looks like a list of highly questionable life choices, from Croatian Busker to Tennis Tour Guide to Magic Salad Fingers (true story), Claire’s charming show tackles the endlessly awkward question: “what do you do?”

(Get a) Real Job looks at what we do to make a few dollars – the changing ways we make our sweet cash in a world of unaffordable houses and unpaid internships – and what to write on a boarding card when ‘Wandering Theatrical Gypsy with Limited Life Skills’ doesn’t quite fit.

Come on a musical romp full of original songs, accompanied by piano, ukulele and a requisite gin, of course.
