Margaret Fulton the Musical

Before Margaret Fulton burst into the nation’s kitchens in 1969 with her burnt orange crockpots and chunky stoneware serving dishes, encouraging housewives to try their hand at Nasi Goreng and Apricot Chicken, Australian food was bland, boring and British, or overly fussy, fancy and French! The Margaret Fulton Cookbook, with hundreds of recipes, step-by step instructions, hints, tips and full-colour pictures, was a huge success, and taught a generation of women how to make delicious, economical dishes for family and friends. Armed with a fondue set, a pressure cooker and their new confidence, women transformed themselves from family cooks to elegant hostesses, serving Chicken Liver Pâté, Sweet and Sour Pork and Chocolate Self-Saucing Pudding. The era of the dinner party was born. Margaret’s book sold over 1.5 million copies and she reigned supreme on our country’s cooking scene, she was awarded an OAM in 1983 and later identified as a National Living Treasure. This delightful musical romp follows her journey from humble beginnings to super-stardom! Entry Cost All tickets $45
