World Premiere.
It's the late 70s and the Australian Aviation Industry is a boy's club. The only job women are allowed involves wearing heels, lighting smokes and serving nuts. Deborah Lawrie's got the chops to fly the big jets, but Reg Ansett won't let her.
From the comedic geniuses who brought you 'Unqualified' and 'Still Unqualified', Genevieve Hegney and Catherine Moore use their trademark humour to unpack the absurd obstacles faced by a trailblazing aviatrix who refused to be grounded. Inspired by a true story, FLY GIRL embarks on Deborah's turbulent journey to becoming Australia's first female commercial airline pilot.
Fasten your seat belts for a soaring celebration of one woman's relentless fight to achieve her dreams. Let FLY GIRL fly!
