"This musical brims with love and energy and is almost like chicken soup for the soul.....a fun night out and a love letter to Australian ingenuity.....every bit as tasty and kitsch as Fulton and her delectable, sweet treats."
AU Review.

"Margaret Fulton “livened up the nation and taught them how to cook with a little inspiration and the Margaret Fulton book”. Words of the enjoyable lively musical, Margaret Fulton Queen of the Dessert, ring true to generations of Australian and English housewives."
Sydney Arts Guide Review.


“It is not just a fun show, but a sociological reflection of gender issues and roles in Australia.”
Sydney Arts Guide



“This musical is a winner like the woman it immortalises.”
Stage Whispers



“A very entertaining heart-warming night of theatre.”
Alt Media



“genuinely funny, heart-warming theatre.”
The Age



“MacLeod's lyrics are witty and Worontschak’s musical styles range from blues to pop and jazz to latin beats.”
The Herald Sun



“A joyous celebration of the life of a great Australian, and the country that grew up with her, Margaret Fulton is eighty minutes of delectable enjoyment, as lightly whipped and deliciously sweet as any of the pavlovas on display.”
Simon Parris



“Light sweet and tasty as befits a cooking Queen.”

“There’s a song about a pressure cooker here that has the potential to be a chart-topping hit. Seriously.”
The Australian





“An entertaining, often amusing experience, featuring charming insights into our heroine’s story. Music by Yuri Worontschak is beautifully melodious, for a slew of catchy tunes that keep our feet tapping along.”
Susy Go See

Before Margaret Fulton burst into the nation’s kitchens in 1969 with her burnt orange crockpots and chunky stoneware serving dishes, encouraging housewives to try their hand at Nasi Goreng and Apricot Chicken, Australian food was bland, boring and British, or overly fussy, fancy and French!
The Margaret Fulton Cookbook, with hundreds of recipes, step-by step instructions, hints, tips and full-colour pictures, was a huge success, and taught a generation of women how to make delicious, economical dishes for family and friends. The era of the dinner party was born! Armed with a fondue set, a pressure cooker and their new confidence, women transformed themselves from family cooks to elegant hostesses, serving Chicken Liver Pâté, Sweet and Sour Pork and Chocolate Self-Saucing Pudding.
Margaret’s book sold over 1.5 million copies.


In 1983 Margaret was awarded an Order of Australia in recognition of her services to cookery, and in 2006 she was named by the National Trust as an Australian Living National Treasure. In 2009 Margaret was named as one of the 25 Australians who have most changed the nation. Sadly, Margaret Fulton passed away on July 24th, 2019, she was 94 years old!
