LUCY Living in my head Is little little me And I can see she’s worried about the future Hey. Don’t worry about the future Cause everything works out fine This is future you And I am telling you You don’t have to worry about the Hey. Don’t worry about the future Everything you dreamed of It’s gonna happen Don’t worry little me Don’t worry little me Everything works out perfectly I’m exactly where you wanted me to be… I’m living in a share house! It’s exactly what I wanted Share house! It doesn’t get better than a share house With all your friends! Or people that you’re friends with by default Who knows what kind of wacky adventures We’re gonna get up to Somebody’s studying their masters. (Shhh!) And they’ve got an assignment due On Tuesday a plumber is coming in To fix a leaky faucet Last night somebody dyed their hair blue! And it’s gonna last for 8 WHOLE WASHES Share house! This is definitely a good thing Share house! Not at all disappointed to be in a Share house at 35! It’s not sad it’s practical I’m hungry, what’s there to eat? Off milk and broccoli Monday night is game night, but the only game we own is Saved by the Bell monopoly We’re always having so much fun, remember when we roasted pink marshmallows? And that costume party we had last year, someone threw up in my sombrero! Share house! No I don’t live with my boyfriend Share house! That’s right I don’t have a boyfriend Share house at 35! It’s not sad it’s practical It’s not sad it’s practical It’s not sad it’s practical It’s not sad IT’S FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE A lot of people have lived with me And I’ll always remember That Irish chick with coeliac disease Who suspiciously never lost her temper The fitness freak, obsessed with health Her perfect physique, made me feel great about myself The girl who ate her feelings The guy who loved Freddie mercury That dude that dressed like Urkel And the break-dancer wannabee That chick who worked at bargain mart Obsessed with potpourri It’s funny cause at one stage They were all a part of me Share house So this is my future Share house Hey! Who drank my Kombucha? A share house till the day I die… Share House! This place is fucking freezing Share house But there’s a heater in the kitchen Cause that’s where you need it most In the room that nobody sleeps in, that already has an oven It’s an ill-designed SHARE HOUSE!

about

There’s nothing wrong with living in a share house at the age of 35. Please, in this economy? It’s not sad, it’s practical. But at what point have you lived with the same person for too long?

Childhood friends Lucy and Jane have been living together for what seems like forever. Jane has even become Lucy’s self-appointed life coach - which would be great for Lucy if Jane’s sedentary existence didn’t seem to consist solely of watching crime show re-runs and never going anywhere.

But everything changes when new housemate Alice moves in. A sunny optimist, Alice inspires Lucy to step out of her comfort zone and embrace life anew. But while Lucy’s spirits are revived by the fresh addition to the house, Jane instantly sees Alice’s naive positivity as a threat.

Will the trio be able to resolve their differences? Will Lucy listen to Jane’s cynicism, or embrace Alice’s unwavering hopefulness? Can they find a way to live together? For the sake of their friendship – and finances – let’s hope so.

Share House: The Musical is an adaptation of Jude Perl's 2017 solo show 'Roommates: The Musical'. Featuring a cast of 5 and a 15 piece orchestra, this ambitious work uses the light-hearted metaphor of a sharehouse, to explore how we co-exist with those whose ideas are radically different to our own.

This cast recording was produced leading up to the premiere season of 'Share House' at the Arts Centre Melbourne May 16th - 19th 2024. The album was proudly produced independently by How Do You Do It Productions Pty Ltd
