Messenger has a magnificent voice and gives it full range, her singing is note perfect and radiates nuance and power. She has been compared to many many different singers yet she is a singularly distinctive performer.

sex.violence.blood.gore. Surprisingly, these elements occupy a limited space in the show. There are plenty of attractive girls in old-style underwear, a little simulated sex and a little simulated violence, but not quite what the name leads you to expect.

Delving into the emotions and the apathy of a generation, Hickson looks into the lives of the ordinary to find the extraordinary in a touching, disturbing and clever piece

While Streisand impersonators come and go, Brinberg brings so much more to the stage than "a man in drag" – he is affectionate, warm and hilariously funny, much like the great lady herself.

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’.
Afterglow | Midnight Theatricals

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.
