Monument

Presented by Red Stitch Actors' Theatre.

Edith Aldridge is the youngest woman to be elected leader of her country. In a lush presidential suite in a heritage-listed hotel, she has just 90 minutes to get ready for the biggest day of her life. Enter Rosie, a 22 year old makeup artist from the David Jones counter, sent to help Edith get camera ready. In Rosie’s capable hands, this morning will be a breeze. So long as they both stick to the brief. 

Emily Sheehan’s astute and entertaining script challenges the trivialisation of beauty therapy, exploring the role that makeup and fashion play in how we perceive and receive women in power.

Suitable for ages 14+
