About this listen

Actor and creator of the stage show 'Big Girls Don't Cry', Dalara Williams drops by to chat all things debutant balls today!

Still big in Aboriginal communities today, Dalara's play 'Big Girls Don't Cry' talks about the rise of them in the 1960s and how a collection of women just wanted to fit in to a society that didn't want them!

We talk all things blak joy, the power of blak sisterhood and why these stories of blak joy + romance should be told far and wide!

Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
