'…For Beverley Dunn’s portrayal of Mary Gilmore, the word performance seems inadequate: she inhabits every corner of the life.' 

- The Times, London

The Dame on the Ten Dollar Note

Devised and performed by Beverley Dunn
  • A CELEBRATION OF MARY GILMORE


    Twenty five years ago Beverley Dunn first took to the stage to celebrate the life of Mary Gilmore. For 12 performances only, Beverley Dunn will once again portray this iconic Australian woman.

    The Dame on the Ten Dollar Note is a one-hour celebration of author, journalist, poet and indomitable activist Dame Mary Gilmore. Drawn from Mary Gilmore’s own words – her prose, her poetry, her newspaper articles, her diaries and letters, Beverley Dunn takes us into a very different Australia.


    Please note: A forum will follow Thursday matinee performances
