Here and Now isn't about Green or his ego, it's all about his subject; he shares anecdotes and snippets about Coward and beautifully brings to life the stories behind the songs and the emotions they carry.

Next Step Productions brings to the stage is an incredibly moving piece of theatre with solid performances from the entire ensemble.

Wolfy is not your typical ‘big bad wolf’. A poetry-loving vegematarian, all Wolfy wants is a friend. But in Alarmsville, where Wolfy lives, the presence of a wolf signals danger, and the onus is on Alarmsville’s citizens to sound a warning whenever a wolf comes near.

Well I suppose that someone had to do it. The camp television comedy, The Golden Girls, is now a camp stage show, with life-size puppets as our favourite girls, Dorothy, Sophia, Rose and Blanche.

Erth’s Dinosaur Zoo is super fun, for adults and kids alike. The audience are instructed upon entry that, given the Jurassic Park-like experience we’re about to have, the whole seating area is a Danger Zone.

The Book of Mormon
It’s been almost 15 years since The Book of Mormon premiered on Broadway and even longer since Joseph Smith ‘discovered’ the golden plates that provided the inspiration for the show.
My Brilliant Career | Melbourne Theatre Company
Step aside The Boy from Oz, there’s a new contender for the title of ‘The Great Australian Musical’.
Cluedo The Play
Cluedo is an energetically performed ensemble farce that either toyed with surprising us, or missed opportunities to do so.
Afterglow | Midnight Theatricals
However earnest and inarguably lovely it is to look at, the pedestrian sexual indulgence and relationship traumas of New York 'A' gays penned 9 years ago doesn't feel particularly urgent.
Piper's Playhouse | Crown Entertainment
There’s an endless fascination for the underground nightlife of prohibition-era America or turn-of-the-century Europe.
Now playing Melbourne
Capturing the essence of its predecessor, Heathers The Musical is an absurdly comic production that doesn’t just walk the line of polite society but plans to blow it all up with reckless abandon.
It feels that the show hasn’t quite worked out what point it wants to make.
