Because We Said We Would
7-8 Nov 2025
This is an archive page for a past Theatre 118 production. Venue and access information below may refer to our former building at 118 Osborne Street.
Follow Jeanie and Tam from the age of seven as they bond over Queen and cassette tapes, making a pact to meet every 5 years, same time, same place. They grow up through changing music scenes, schoolyard taunts and dreams of rock stardom, where their bond deepens into something that defies easy definition and a childhood promise leads to a lifelong connection. But not everyone’s song plays out the same…
This is a dynamic, working-class story of friendship and music, tracing decades of love, loss, and loyalty that unfolds with humour and heart.

"With Fox herself playing Jeanie, and Tam brought to life by Codge Crawford, the end result is a moving look at how two young lives full of hope find and lose each other. With Fox and Crawford on stage throughout the show's 80 minutes, as Jeanie and Tam move from being excited infants before treading very different paths, this heartfelt tale of loss shows how the long term trauma following one appalling moment can cause the music to stop forever."
