There’s something incredibly frustrating about modern interpretations of classic works. Perhaps it’s only the case when they are not executed well.

Each piece has a completely different vibe and motivation, but all are densely packed and detailed and run the gamut of entertaining, cryptic, wacky and virtuosic.

For me the whole evening was a revelation, a thrilling exposure to a tradition I am unfamiliar with.

Darcy has an incredible voice and an obvious passion for French language particularly. She is not a native speaker yet has an intimate knowledge of its tones and subtleties.

With the world the way it is right now, we can all use a little escapist joy. Finucane & Smith and their stable of high quality, truly unique burlesque and cabaret artists are just the ticket for these turbulent times.

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.
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.
