STEPHANIE HARE: A Chance to Address the Amish Rumours at The Butterfly Club

Stephanie Hare grew up off-grid without the internet, hot water, or even a fridge. 

When her mother was twenty-three, she left Melbourne, bought a goat, and built a house out of firewood in the middle-of-nowhere Tasmania. Now Steph is twenty-three and she’s written a comedy show about it. Her little brother used to finger knit harnesses and ride the goat like a horse; her father spent weeks living in a cave; her mother snuck into the neighbours’ paddocks at night to shear their sheep; and Steph thought that was all pretty normal until she moved to Melbourne.

This is a whimsical show that encapsulates the absurdity of rural life, the chaos of being a twenty-something, and how much Steph loves instagram reels.
