It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You: Songs of Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen

Written and created by sensational vocalist and comedian Lisa Woodbrook, It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You invites audience members on a fresh journey into the modern world of dating. Narrated by the songs of Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, Woodbrook beautifully sings all of our guilty-pleasure songs to complement her all-too-real anecdotes of ghosting, swiping and general awkwardness in the quest for love.

Sitting in the intimate space of Melbourne’s renowned Butterfly Club, you feel like you’re among friends swapping stories over a “few” glasses of wine. Sharing her own triumphs and tragedies, Woodbrook takes her audience on an emotional voyage.

Artistically, Woodbrook weaves powerhouse songs such as ‘Smile’, ‘Back to Black’, ‘Not Fair’ and ‘Tears Dry On Their Own’ through her narrative. You couldn’t help but take a trip down memory lane, and recall woeful dating experience – the lyrics are so raw and permeating. And in the empowering words of Woodbrook, “it’s not me, it’s DEFINITELY you.”

Through comical storytelling and sharing, It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You is an uplifting show not to be missed. Woodbrook uses personal and relatable dating experiences to entertain her audience. Her self-deprecating and honest humour often results in the audience slipping a casual “omg me too!” throughout the show. Infusing the music from the late Winehouse and the lovable Allen, Woodbrook juxtaposes the lyrics from well-known songs against the relatable topic of modern dating, using cheeky winks and innuendos for comical effect. Woodbrook is not afraid to use her voice and movement to bring her experiences to life on stage, refreshingly flailing about with energy and enthusiasm.

Woodbrook is a singer, actor and TV presenter. She has performed in stage productions including High Fidelity, Paris: A Rock Odyssey, Shine a Light and 50 Shades: The Musical. As a TV Presenter, she was Melbourne’s “eye in the sky” reporting live on Ten News First and co-hosting Foxtel’s Get A Life fitness and wellness program.

For those single and ready to mingle, or for those who are not aware of the struggles in keeping up with swipes, fishing for the love of your life, or bumbling through the potentials, It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You is DEFINITELY for you!
