What's On

Isn't It Romantic?
 

ISN’T IT ROMANTIC? stars Robert Green with Alexander Sussman. It is an enchanting tribute to the life of Lorenz Hart, with songs by Rodgers and Hart.

Lorenz Hart is one of the great lyricists, writing in the first half of the 20th century. Hugely prolific, many of his songs endure because they continue to speak to the human condition, which  despite the fact that we now live in the age of AI and chatGPT, hasn't really changed much in 5,000 years.  We continue to fall in love, out of love, yearn and pine for it. Hart's often bittersweet lyrics continue to strike a chord, and his humour and ingenious rhymes still make us laugh. 

The limited three-night season will be a true celebration for the Genesian Theatre and its audience, as the company's time in their Kent Street location draws to a close. This season also serves as a fund raiser to help finance the company's move to their new theatre at Rozelle.

    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
    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
    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.
