Not just any "chick." She's very well-known in Australia. You probably know her as Farmer Hoggett's wife.

That's so insanely different. I can barely even tell which character is which.

Olive and Willa... a lesbian crush; at least it makes the show a little more Logainne-appropriate

It still doesn't make it any less creepy.

Now, what is the relationship about between Olive and Barfee? Is she playing it as a guy?

Yes; this was actually the first production outside the US. They beat the SF company by a few months.

I saw that Melbourne Theatre Company production. Actually, Magda made a very good Barfee, complete with speech impediment.
