Following its acclaimed, award winning debut with Elegies; A Song Cycle at fortyfivedownstairs in 2024, Clovelly Fox — one of Melbourne’s most exciting new theatre companies — returns with a fresh take on Ordinary Days, the contemporary musical by Adam Gwon. Directed by Green Room Award-winner Tyran Parke (who first brought this gem to life at Chapel Off Chapel), this production promises heart, humour, and a beautifully intimate theatrical experience.
Set in the chaos of New York City, ‘Ordinary Days’ weaves together the lives of four strangers searching for connection, purpose, and meaning in the everyday. With a luminous score and stories that resonate long after the final note, this is a show for anyone who’s ever felt lost — and found something unexpected along the way.
Clovelly Fox brings signature warmth and emotional clarity to this celebrated work. Don’t miss the chance to see a powerhouse team reimagine a modern musical classic with grace, charm, and truth.

Ticket fees are charged reluctantly. As an unfunded CBD located venue, our expenses continue to rise. If fortyfivedownstairs is to survive, we are obliged to increase our revenue without inflicting costs on already struggling artists. Without support, we risk losing artists or having to close our doors. We do hope for your understanding!
