BLUE BONES
By Merlynn Tong

‘I saw my insides today. I found Tom, my first love, in my bones.’

When a woman finds scars left by her ex-boyfriend of many years etched into her bones, she is compelled to unpack her past and discover how he got under her skin.

This Sydney exclusive performance is based on the true story of two teenagers’ romance as it blossoms then warps in the heat of bustling Singapore, Blue Bones is a one-woman show told with incredible honesty by Merlynn Tong (White Pearl). Combining multiple characters, Kung Fu and arcade games; Blue Bones is a whirlwind of love and naivety, violence and courage, with the wreckage felt across the years.

Against the backdrop of Singapore with all its beauty, rigidity and insistent chaos, Blue Bones will enchant and disturb, and perhaps even wake the stories dormant in your bones.

WINNER!
6 Matilda Awards including Best Mainstage Production and Best Female Actor in a Leading Role.
