The format for 2 Ukeleles and a Cello is a familiar one: musical comedy improv done theatre sports style.

So your first show of the evening was a bit of a flop and you still have a comedy itch that needs scratching; or maybe your still in the mood after one excellent hour and need more laughter.

Sean Choolburra is a nice guy. A really nice guy. He's the sort of kid who wouldn't need bullying at school cos he'd probably give away his lunch if you wanted it anyway. And smile while you ate it.

You can't do an entire comedy show about plums, can you. At least not one that is going to be laugh out loud funny pretty well start to finish. Right?

Sometimes comedy just makes you happy. Coming out of David O’Doherty’s latest show, I have a kind of inside glow, a feeling that our messed up world is maybe kind of OK, maybe even kind of awesome, after all.

West Gate | Melbourne Theatre Company
At 11.50am on October 15 1970, 35 men fell to their death as their place of work gave way from under them.
Heathers The Musical
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.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.
Swan | Elf Lyons
Quirks of the source – and of the environment that sustains it – are cleanly exposed in a high-energy hour of physical comedy, delivered with moments of avian grace.
The Brut Truth: A Champagne Comedy Tasting | Prétentieux vin Branleur
It feels that the show hasn’t quite worked out what point it wants to make.
Suzie Miller’s award-winning one-woman play, Prima Facie returns to Melbourne for a limited season.
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.
