Clutching onto my friend throughout the 90-minute show, it was over far too quickly and would be happily viewed again.

Watching Cavalia is to recover something of our humanity, like a gentle reawakening after a long and empty sleep.

The two songbirds sing their way through the musical melting pot, blending Katie’s jazz and pop tones with Maggie’s classical power.

Foxfinder is a classic, well-structured work, a parable of social repression, delusion and totalitarianism along the lines of 1984, Lord of The Flies and The Crucible.

Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, girl agrees to marry boy, boy becomes wildly successful while girl is stuck at home lamenting her failed dreams.

The story feels very Shakespearean and indeed is given something of the Shakespearean treatment by this cast of very fine, if muddied, actors.

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.
