What's On

Rosie Waterland 'Kid Chameleon' at Sydney Comedy Festival
 

Born while her parents were on the run from drug dealers, Rosie Waterland spent her entire childhood shapeshifting and adjusting and course-correcting based on whatever scenario she found herself in. Mum’s a sex worker? Adjust. In foster care? Shape-shift. Dad collapses drunk in the middle of a busy road? Course correct, figure it out. When your world keeps changing, you kind of have no choice but to keep changing with it.  

A household name since her hilarious Bachelor recaps became essential pop culture reading and award-winning podcaster for her blockbuster Mum Says My Memoir Is A Lie, Rosie has expanded her podcasting repertoire with Just the Gist, which won the 2020 Australian Podcast Award for Best Entertainment Podcast. 

Also a best-selling author, columnist, comedian and screenwriter, Rosie has sold out theatres and enraptured audiences across the country with her trademark frank, funny honesty on topics from awkward sex to body image and mental health. Don’t miss one of Australia’s most prolific, honest, endearingly funny talents live on stage!  

★★★★★ 'Magnificent comedic story spinning ability' The Advertiser 

★★★★ 'An engaging, candid, and hilarious storyteller' Fest Mag  

'Waterland is bloody funny. Articulate and laser sharp, a natural comedic story-teller with one hell of a story to tell' Mindshare

  • Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    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
    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.
