Garage Girls
Meet Alice Anderson. Mechanic. Trailblazer. Entrepreneur. A rollicking ride through 1920s Melbourne.
It’s 1920s Melbourne – the advent of the motorcar. Society reels from the aftermath of war and a second wave of Spanish flu wreaks havoc on the streets. Meanwhile, one small woman defies convention and makes her mark.
Garage Girls shines a light on Alice Anderson’s short but eventful life. Why did she drive her Austin all the way to Alice Springs? Who were all those women, dressed in greasy dungarees, and don’t they look a little bit like men? Sparked by historical events, with many colourful characters played by five actors, Garage Girls is a rip-roaring ride celebrating a Victorian icon.
