An A to Z Guide to Dating is a one-woman musical based on a dating book that writer-performer (and Best Newcomer at Musical Comedy Awards) Grace O’Keefe’s mother wrote in the late 80s. Publishers said it would set feminism back 20 years. 40 years later, let’s find out!

This theatrical equivalent of a little girl struggling in her mother’s heels, the musical explores relationships, romance and living life to the fullest as a fully grown woman. Featuring original music by Grace O’Keefe (Summoning Sondheim, Sense & Sensibility), the show will leave audiences with a deeper appreciation of their mothers and a chaotic new approach to dating.

This is the first preview of the show, which will be premiering with Underbelly at EdFringe 2026.
