This is a great show where the cast interact well with the audience. This was a fun and enjoyable show that appeals to all ages from young kids to adults, it weaves the true story with a strong thread of humour that everyone can enjoy. We had a great time and I recommend anyone visiting Strahan see it. One tip, wear warm cloths, they provide blankets but on a cold night it helps to be well dressed
2. Her Story
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 255 reviews
If you enjoyed Louisa's Walk you will equally love Her Story! Also told in Strolling Theatre, Her Story tells the tale of another convict woman - Mary James. Mary was sent to the Female Factory in 1833 for stealing a square of cloth. You will walk through those same gates to meet Mary and hear Her Story. Be prepared to laugh and cry as the harsh conditions endured by convict women unfold. BUT you will get to dob in the brutal overseer and get your own back!!! Visit the Cascades Female Factory which is the most important site for convict women in Australia. Let expert actors bring this site to life. You will leave with an emotional connection to Mary James but also a good understanding of daily life in the notorious Cascades Female Factory. Meet Mary and hear Her Story.

This was a very informative pantomime play about the escape of convicts from Sarah Island to Chile. Who knew! So much fun, so hilarious.
