Ginette McDonald in My Briliant Divorce

Ginette McDonald stars in the return season of this hilarious one-woman tour de force! Wittily observant, achingly funny and heart-wrenchingly real this comedy explores what life is like for Angela, recently dumped by her accountant husband for a younger model. Left with the dog, emotionally bereft and with self-confidence at an all time low, she finds herself adrift in a sea of weird sexual encounters, sneaky solicitors, phone-in counsellors, a bad case of hypochondria and the spectre of poverty! Should she fight to keep her husband? Or should she sign the final papers and move on?

With MY BRILLIANT DIVORCE Ginette McDonald returns to Downstage, where she began acting professionally at 14 years. It was here where she developed the famous “Lyn of Tawa” which she describes as becoming a “Cultural Ambassador & Certifiable Living Treasure”. She has been an important part of the New Zealand entertainment industry for many years as comedienne, actress, producer, director and TV presenter.

"Just loved the show!"
Sarah Bradley, Co-Host of TVNZ's Good Morning
