Gust

a play with songs by Nikki Kalkman

Written by Nikki Kalkman

Gust is currently in development and being supported by Visible Fiction's Working Title project.

Gust centres on the story of three women from different generations – a grandmother, a mother and a daughter who all at the age of 23 leave home, breaking free of their family exception and social convention to venture across the seas in search of freedom and adventure.

Inspired by Nikki's own personal history, Gust will explore the themes of identity, travel and changing gender roles. Gust will use the music of the 40’s, 70’s and 00’s to explore the stories of three brave women.
