A whip-crackin’, piano-packin’ musical that celebrates the wildest woman in the Wild West
Welcome to the rough-and-tumble town of Deadwood, where swaggering sharpshooter Calamity Jane is mocked and admired in equal measure. Deadly with a whip or a quip, her bluster and bravado mask a longing for something deeper.
This is a bold reimagining of the classic musical that features all your favourite numbers – including Secret Love and The Black Hills of Dakota – but this ain’t Doris Day’s Calamity Jane, no siree. This stripped-back staging shucks off the buckskin and digs deeper into the grit, humour and heart of the fierce frontier legend.
Cabaret daredevil Naomi Price slips into Jane’s trail-worn boots for this rootin’, tootin’, unruly and unpredictable ride – this revival brings a barrelful of dirt, grit and heart to the stage.
After a sellout season in Brisbane, this intimate, immersive experience ropes audiences right into the story. Join Calamity’s piano-fuelled posse and pull up a stool to be part of the action!

“Deliriously funny, impeccably staged. Beg, borrow, hold up a stagecoach, rob a Wells Fargo – but make sure you get a ticket.” – Brisbane Times
“This heart-warming, hilarious musical ticks every box for a fabulous night out.” – ArtsHub
ONSTAGE SALOON TABLE SEATING
Onstage Saloon Seating as featured in Calamity Jane at the Fairfax Studio, Arts Centre Melbourne.
From the moment you enter the theatre, you’re swept into the Golden Garter Saloon – alive with drinkers, gamblers and the constant threat of chaos – setting the scene for an unruly, unpredictable ride. This is especially true for the dozens of audience members seated onstage at the saloon tables, who find themselves becoming part of the raucous revival whenever they least expect it.
Join Calam’s piano-fuelled posse and pull up a stool at one of the onstage tables to dive right into the action.
