Battle of Waterloo is at its heart a story of hope and the ability to dream beyond what is in front of you.

This Kylie Coolwell play tells the tale of two sisters; Sissy, played by the incredibly talented Shareena Clanton and Cassie, played by Shari Sebbens who is best known for her outstanding performance in The Sapphires. As Cassie’s boyfriend arrive back home to Redfern after three years on the inside, the sisters must decide whether to settle for the life they have or to work hard and achieve their goals.

Shareena Clanton’s role as the eccentric Sissy was a break for the actress from the intensity of filming television hit show Wentworth. She has wanted to work with the Sydney Theatre Company and this is a dream role for her. The play aims to change your perceptions and transform your reality. Shareena states, “there is no play around like it, it is giving the audience a new generation of theatre.” (LB)
