In Their Own Words - Starring Rachael Beck

In Their Own Words is a multi-disciplinary one-woman show, starring well-known stage-and screen performer Rachael Beck - celebrating the songs and stories of twenty trailblazing Australian women; some whom are recognised, many whom are not. Rachael weaves verbatim words and anecdotes collected from women including Ita Buttrose, Tanya Plibersek, Marcia Langton and Carlotta, with the music of famous Australian songwriters such as Missy Higgins, Kate Miller-Heidke, Kate Ceberano, and Dami Im, to create a powerful tapestry of female strength and achievement. From artists to scientists, politicians to humanitarians, these are stories of triumph, resilience, and breakthrough - mostly never before heard on stage. In Their Own Words is a moving musical tribute to some of the extraordinary Australian women who have defined and made their mark on our culture. With contributions from visual artists, architects, scientists, writers, songwriters, conservationists, politicians, athletes, entertainers and humanitarians, In Their Own Words celebrates the life, times and epiphanies of Australian women who have achieved incredible things... and overcome incredible trials.
