SUMMARY:The Manager is Me
DESCRIPTION:The Manager Is Me is a funny\, moving solo theatre work about the invisible labour of caring\, parenting\, working and somehow trying to hold onto yourself in the middle of it all. \nWritten and performed by 2025 Victorian Australian Poetry Slam Champion Dayna Fallon\, the show draws on her own experience of caring for her husband through complex health issues while raising three young children and working. \nThrough comedy\, spoken word and theatre\, The Manager Is Me shines a light on the emotional and practical work carers do every day — often quietly\, often behind closed doors\, and often without even thinking of themselves as carers. \nIt is a show about being the person everyone relies on\, making people laugh when things are falling apart\, and what happens when the person doing all the caring finally needs care too. \nFunny first\, but with real emotional weight underneath\, The Manager Is Me aims to help carers feel seen and to encourage audiences to recognise the caring work happening around them every day. \nPerforming at The Salon\, The Motley Wherehaus\, as part of Melbourne Fringe 2026.

SUMMARY:Small Magics - Story Medicine for the Carer Journey Book Launch - Melbourne City Library
DESCRIPTION:Book launch \n1-3pm (12.30pm for a 1pm start) \nStories have always helped people survive loss\, make meaning from chaos\, laugh in the dark\, and imagine a way forward when no road can yet be seen. Small Magics – Story Medicine for the Carer Journey emerges from that ancient knowing\, and from a very contemporary kind of courage: the courage of families and carers who\, amid the demands of supporting someone challenged by mental health and substance use\, chose to make space for themselves. \nThis courageous collection of stories\, poetry and original artworks by families and carers carries the spirit of honesty\, creativity\, humour and wisdom. Small Magics speaks not only of hardship\, but of resourcefulness. Not only of burden\, but of beauty. Not only of caring for others\, but of reclaiming care for the self. \nJoin us for… Storytelling/readings by families and carers\nLight refreshments\nDigital book viewing**Please note this book will initially be published online\, and there will not be physical copies available on the day. \nAny questions\, please contact Anna: \n8850 4150 \nAnna.Guthrie@accesshc.org.au

SUMMARY:The Manager is Me
DESCRIPTION:The Manager Is Me is a funny\, moving solo theatre work about the invisible labour of caring\, parenting\, working and somehow trying to hold onto yourself in the middle of it all. \nWritten and performed by 2025 Victorian Australian Poetry Slam Champion Dayna Fallon\, the show draws on her own experience of caring for her husband through complex health issues while raising three young children and working. \nThrough comedy\, spoken word and theatre\, The Manager Is Me shines a light on the emotional and practical work carers do every day — often quietly\, often behind closed doors\, and often without even thinking of themselves as carers. \nIt is a show about being the person everyone relies on\, making people laugh when things are falling apart\, and what happens when the person doing all the caring finally needs care too. \nFunny first\, but with real emotional weight underneath\, The Manager Is Me aims to help carers feel seen and to encourage audiences to recognise the caring work happening around them every day. \nPerforming at The Salon\, The Motley Wherehaus\, as part of Melbourne Fringe 2026.
