From award-winning Australian writer Aidan Fennessy comes The Heartbreak Choir — a love song to kindness, courage and the humble community choir.

In a weathered CFA hall on the edge of town, five locals gather to sing. They've broken away from their old choir over a matter of principle — and now, with a new name, a last-minute gig, and a bottle of local Sangiovese in hand, they're finding their harmonies once again.

But this isn't just about music. It's about grief, community, and learning how to hold each other up when life strikes the wrong chord.

Set in a regional town, The Heartbreak Choir is a gently funny, deeply moving celebration of connection, second chances, and the small, defiantly hopeful ways we show up for one another. With its dry wit, big-hearted characters and unmistakable Aussie charm, this is a play that will leave you humming the high notes.

With a stellar cast of South Australian performers including the incomparable Libby O'Donovan, this play from State Theatre Company South Australia promises a powerhouse of local talent.
