Di and Viv and Rose will be at the Penrith Playhouse from Wednesday February 15 to Saturday February 18.
Book your tickets for this funny and thoughtful exploration of friendship’s impact on life, and life’s impact on friendship.
Aged 18, three women join forces as freshers at university in 1983 and decide to share a house. Life is fun. Living is intense. Together they feel unassailable.
On the surface, they seem unlikely friends, other than their shared love of the music of the artist formerly known as Prince.
Di, a sporty lesbian business student, bursting with energy; Viv, a judgemental, driven, ambitious design student intent on escaping her roots; and Rose, more middle-class, insouciant, a student of art history.
It’s the early 80s and their friendship, over the next 27 years, is the subject and the heart of this light, amusing and entertaining show.
Written by Amelia Bullmore, the play shows how their solidarity precariously survives physical separation, varied career paths and life’s challenges.
Di and Viv and Rose will be on stage at the Penrith Playhouse from Wednesday February 15 to Saturday February 18.
