An artistic young musician goes to Paris to study and to learn how to live...along the way she encounters ghosts of the artistic Parisian past. A concert-theatre piece with delicious French music from "la Belle Epoque" to the present day, in which Jane reminisces about the most beautiful and romantic city in the world. Using French poetry and her own anecdotes, she also tells the tales of other artists, writers and musicians who used Paris to form their "artistic personalities".

An Australian in Paris includes the legacy of the Rampal School, and the "tres amusant" company of Picasso, Baudelaire, Verlaine, Colette, Josephine Baker, Janet Flanner and Gertrude Stein. Music by Debussy, Faure, Jolivet, Poulenc, Elgar, Roussel, Marais, Ravel, Bolling, Cole Porter, Mancini, Piaf and Aznavour.

A virtuosic musical and poetic tour de force, which has evoked standing ovations in Paris and Australia.
