Good Muslim Boy | Malthouse Theatre
The depth and nature of the obstacles Osamah must overcome to deal respectfully with unexpected loss is indeed amplified knowing we are watching the man himself retrace his own steps in dramatic form.

The Children | Melbourne Theatre Company
Massively thought provoking and enjoyable, The Children powerfully couples eco morality with a painful study of physical decline.
The stage adaptation by Tom Wright has adroitly captured the complex nature of this story, one full of contrasts – a fun picnic turned tragedy, English rules and regulations as opposed to the lawlessness of Australian bush and the diminutive schools girls gazing up at a towering rock.

Dolly Diamond's 15-Year Anniversary Gala

Falsettos | StageArt

RIOT | Thisispopbaby
Tightly clad and tightly choreographed, Riot, created and directed by Jennifer Jennings & Phillip McMahon, delivers 90 minutes of joyously indulgent irreverence underpinned by calls to think beyond our current servings of politics, religion and social media.
Killjoy-Destroy the Fantasy is as confronting, as it is beautiful, as hard to watch, as it is hilarious and ultimately, a joyful celebration of our differences.
