A brand new original musical JULIE - telling the life and adventures of historical LGBTQ+ icon, Julie D'Aubigny.

Julie D'Aubigny is considered to be one of the most chaotic characters to have ever lived, and was one of the first public figures to live as an openly bisexual woman! From seducing nuns, duelling multiple men at once and burning down convents, to being bribed by Princes and innovating Opera (all before she turned 30!) - Julie’s adventures are brought to life in this new original musical by Abey Bradbury.

JULIE is a musical celebrating not only this extraordinary life, but also queerness, found family and carving a place for yourself in a world not built for you.
