Sunday is one of the best things the Melbourne Theatre Company has done in some time and even with an impossibly short extension, it deservedly sold out.

tick, tick…BOOM! has a great narrative, some incredible songs and is easily recognizable to the struggling artists and bohemians of the audience.

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

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.
Now playing Melbourne
There is a lot to love about this show; the cast are strong, and the onstage band who interact in the main diner setting is a fun touch.
