Sybylla Melvyn is finding her voice.

Growing up in the 90s - the 1890s, that is - life doesn't throw a lot of options at a girl. But life didn't reckon on Sybylla. Forced to choose between romance and her own genius, her family and a future she defines, she's decided she's having it all.

Miles Franklin's novel gets a bold new makeover that transforms one of the most enduring literary figures into a musical heroine for this very moment. An adaptation with edge, this re-imagining captures the playful and effervescent spirit of a young woman ready to take on the world.
