A young woman wearing a tiara is sitting at a messy table eating a birthday cake with her hands. Her face and hands are covered in cake and icing. The table is littered with candy, streamers, balloons and ribbons with candles of the number '21' sitting on top of the destroyed cake.

Written and Performed by: Rachel Tunaley
Musical Director: Sean Donehue

It’s Rachel’s 21st birthday and as she reflects on her life so far, she realises one fatal flaw... she has absolutely no idea who she is. There's only one thing she's ever truly wanted: Fame! And every lie she’s ever told has been in preparation for her inevitable stardom (or imminent self destruction).

'12 Lies I Told Before 21' features a range of original songs as well as popular songs and takes you on a hilarious journey of self discovery, told through the many lies of a fame-hungry child.

So grab your $7 prosecco, strappy heels and blister patches, because you're on the list for the biggest (and messiest) 21st birthday party of the year!
