Focus on Schubert was performed amidst the fire smoke, which kept reminding the artists and viewers of the dreadful disaster and ensuing loss.

The minute I sat in that great space at fortyfive downstairs and looked at the set and the three performers in place on the stage, I knew it was going to be a good show. I wasn’t disappointed

Hitting its mark in the 2009 Midsumma Festival, Forbidden Broadway is one musical revue with a twist.

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.

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.
