Ali Bodycoat was in perfect form last evening at the Ellington Jazz Club. Her tribute to Barbra Streisand could not have been lovelier. With her exquisite phrasing and crisp enunciation she was absolutely terrific paying tribute to the divine diva.
Perth Reviews
FringeWorld 2018 is, as ever, full of eclectic performances, even within a single presenter or venue’s program.
Clever, fun, sometimes moving, and always bringing it, Bring It On is a hoot, and showcases of some of the best youth performances I’ve ever seen.
What a pleasure it is to see Melissa Langton and Mark Jones back in Perth after a few year’s absence. These two are so prodigiously talented they make the show fly past.
Short, witty feminist kitchen sink drama with an all-male cast.
Lawrence Leung makes his first appearance at the Perth Fringe Festival this year, and what a reliably funny, confounding and confusingly clever performer he is.
As dancers they are excellent but where they totally charm is in their unabashed enjoyment of dance. They interact brilliantly with the audience, pull faces, laugh and sing along.
This rather peculiarly named show raised some hopes of subtle, sophisticated, risqué, double-entendres. A dash of Noel Coward wit perhaps? These wishes were immediately dashed as the pair launched into a programme of the “magnificently filthy world of dirty music” to quote the media release.
