Back to Me is a one-woman musical journey from Australian folk legend Penelope Swales, built from songs by three collaborating writers, Swales, Jules de Cinque and Victoria Vigenser.

 

In the small car that becomes Tilly's home, there’s no room for the guitar she’s always played. Instead, she wields a ukulele — a poignant reminder of how much her world has shrunk.

​

Back to Me is about holding on to your voice when life is unyielding. It is a 60-minute story of survival, via transitional housing, taking one woman from homelessness to hope.
