What's On

Revenge
 

Featuring in Melbourne Cabaret Fringe Festival 2018, sweet and spicy New South Wales cabaret performer, Irene Nicola takes on the patriarchy, politicians, late-stage capitalism and inequality in this in-your-face performance that has the entire audience cheering. Join her and her long-suffering writer/comedian husband Sam Wade, as they battle their opponents and each other in an original cabaret of saucy burlesque, salty diatribes, Enid Blyton styled storytelling - for adults only! - and scathing, original songs. This is a show about venting rage, laughing through the tears and dismantling the patriarchy, the most cathartic and entertaining way Irene and Sam know how - so, grab your spoons and dig in to an ice-cold dish of REVENGE!

2-7 July

8:30pm 

The Butterfly Club

“Irene and her husband give you a night of music, outrageous costumes (or lack thereof) and caustic comedic cabaret.” 
- Glam Adelaide

“Irene’s style of striptease burlesque and in your face femininity is what made the audience fall in love with her, but her creative and very clever original songs are what we love about Revenge.”
- The Upside News

“Sam Wade is a consummate comedian who reduced this audience to tears of laughter.”
- Glam Adelaide

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
