Peach Melba explores the public and private lives of the inimitable Dame Nellie Melba. At her final concert, the great diva is haunted by critical moments from her past. The play uses music from Melba's repertoire to bring these moments alive as two Melbas - the confident, determined careerist and the private doubting woman - confront each other recalling highlights from a life full of triumph, scandal and pain.
