Everything about Fat Swan - from the dance steps, through the characters, the one-liners and double entendres, to the essential parody of a certain block-buster movie - is in-your-face, colourful and, well, larger than life. After a sell-out season earlier this year at the Spiegeltent and the marketing blurb warning that the adults-only panto is camp, even crass, it's fair to say that the audience comes prepared.


Tender Napalm is simply one of those rare and great shows where everything comes together just right. Anyone with a hankering for beautifully crafted, meticulously meted and wonderfully performed theatre will get their fill here. See it and weep, laugh, be moved and inspired.

Grant has struck upon comedy gold with her hoarding habits and the stories that go along with her collection of clutter. Deeply personal, sometimes thought provoking and at all times highly amusing, Grant's show Have My Stuff is truly well done.

Everything about Swan Lake is flawless - the tragic romance, the superb choreography and elegant prose represented through elongated limbs and stunning movement. Every aspect of the show is transporting, from the sets and background pieces that immerse the audience in their world, to the extravagant costumes that highlight the differences between air, land and water or avian and woman.

Kellie Higgins and Fiona Della Ca are both incredible performers. What's more, they work brilliantly as a team, without one every upstaging the other (something that is very, very common, in this kind of theatre). If you ever get the chance, I would definitely recommend going to see them. They're great actors and amazing musicians with a great sense for comedy,

Popular culture leads us to believe that many men are driven by the 'thrill of the chase' in their pursuit of women, but at what point does the chase turn into something more sinister? At what point does an admirer become unwelcome? Boy Gets Girl is a contemporary thriller that delves into the act of stalking and demonstrates the resulting havoc on the lives of its hapless victims.
