About the Show

Woebegone tells the story of 3 young women, reunited by their downfalls and torn apart by the disturbing reality of how dangerous being a woman can be. Shining a light on the devastating realities that women face and confronting the political and social reactions that often sweep these tragedies under the carpet whilst exploring the complexities of female friendships, the love, the joy and the frustrations. Amy, Dani and Joy are all trying – really trying – to navigate a world that isn’t built for them whilst battling with the frustrations of friendship and adulthood. After time apart, Dani returns from her wreckless travels to the student home of Joy and Amy where they once spent years together but this time things are different. Joy, a full-time training lawyer, and Amy, a full-time primary school teacher, have left the days of sleepless nights for stability but Dani is having a hard time letting go and is afraid of being left behind. What happens next, nothing could have prepared them, and we see Dani and Amy forced to put their arguments and past behind when confronted with a life-changing tragedy.
