What's On

Steel Magnolias
 

Welcome to Truvy's beauty salon, where the wise-cracking owner dispenses more than just haircuts to the Southern ladies who make up her clientele. Here we’ll meet Truvy’s new assistant – the maybe-married Annelle – and her regulars: Miss Clairee, a rich widow who loves football, M'Lynn, the local guidance counsellor, and her daughter, Shelby, the prettiest girl in town. And then there’s Ouiser, whose acerbic tongue will be held for no-one. This is a story filled with heart, humour and a whole lotta hairspray!

    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.
