The Revlon Girl
The Revlon Girl is a touching play based on a true story. It’s set in Aberfan, a Welsh mining village where an enormous slag heap collapsed and slid down the mountain in 1966, burying 144 people. A school was right in its path, and 116 children died. Set eight months after the disaster, some bereaved mothers meet every week to support each other, and decide to invite the Revlon make-up girl because they’ve ‘let themselves go’. Directed by Glenda Campi.
When: Friday, April 29, 7.30pm and Saturday, April 30, 2pm and 7.30pm.
Where: Nambour Lind Lane Theatre, 16 Mitchell St, Nambour.
