Congratulations to Melissa Bubnic on a Fantastic Premiere Season of ‘Ghosting The Party’
Ghosting The Party by Melissa Bubnic finished up its premiere season this weekend.
Coming home from her sister’s funeral, Grace decides that at 87 years old… her time has come. She’s done with it all. She’s ready to leave the party. Her daughter, Dorothy, decides her mum is just depressed. She makes it her mission to show Grace the beauty of living. But Dorothy is divorced. Stuck in a dead-end job. Estranged from her own daughter, Suzie, who lives halfway across the world. Soon, Dorothy starts to worry that her mum might have the right idea.
Ghosting The Party received rave reviews across the board.
★★★★½ — The Sydney Morning Herald
Ghosting the Party is wickedly funny, desperately loving, and just sharp enough to pierce your heart.
★★★★½ — Suzy Goes See
Ghosting the Party is a highly intelligent, and provocative, piece of writing, but also supremely funny, able to thoroughly entertain, as it makes clever arguments about some of life’s most serious matters.
★★★★ — Time Out Sydney
This is a surprisingly enjoyable play with belly-laughs and lots of warmth.
★★★★ — Limelight
Ghosting the Party has something serious to say about contemporary life and mores and does it with wit, excoriating humour and insight.
