THAT’S ALL SHE WROTE
BY CASSANDRA TSE
A solo cabaret celebrating the work of female and non-binary musical theatre writers, That’s All She Wrote intersperses songs from recent Broadway hits (Hadestown, Fun Home, Waitress), underrated indie gems (Murder Ballad, Runaways, Heterotopia) and original music with tales from musical theatre history.
Performer and writer Cassandra Tse tells her own story of a journey from musical theatre performance to writing and celebrates the women and non-binary writers who have come before her.
