Melbourne Reviews

Cory Taylor’s final book Dying: A Memoir was a surprise hit world-wide. Now the stage version has its own surprises in store.

Even given that this is a musical, there is often very little dialog, with 13 songs crammed into the hour, each with a short story to tell.

Both musically and theatrically, this production is a masterpiece.

MJ explores the genesis of genius and feels a very credible take on creative inspiration and influence.

It's a beautifully executed piece that balances its social commentary with phenomenal performances and humour.

Patrick Barlow’s irreverent reimagining of John Buchan’s British spy-thriller The 39 Steps is now playing at The Comedy Theatre.

Keene’s characters don’t move us to care because of what they ask but because of what they tell.

A true ensemble piece, In The Heights is a heartfelt production that plays on themes of family and the family you choose.

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.
