Ballroom and indigenous dance are not an obvious combination, but Burn The Floor, in collaboration with Mitch Tambo and a cohort of esteemed artists, give it a red hot go in brand new show Walanbaa Yulu-Gi.

While there is interaction with the audience in a charming dance scene and the characters consistently break the fourth wall, there’s very little else to draw you in as an audience member. Overall, this version of Romeo and Juliet was unfortunately, underwhelming.

Fans of Mary Coustas, who made her name in the 1980s as Effie, now have a chance to get to know the woman behind the girl with the big hair and even bigger mouth.

Oneiric stands out as one of the best NICA graduate showcases in memory. The show is a true fusion of contemporary dance with circus skills.

Dammit, Janet. I really loved this show. From the pitch-perfect Jason Donovan who stepped into the iconic fishnets with aplomb to the supporting cast, the 50th Anniversary production of Richard O’Brien’s cult classic, Rocky Horror Show was a triumph.

No stranger to stage solitude but stepping away from more familiar performance territory, comedy national treasure Judith Lucy is terrific as Winnie.
