Smashed is an incredibly imaginative, engaging and delightful performance.

It would be hard to dream up two plays more different than Booze Furniture Sex and Nameless. Together, they make a truly bizarre double bill.

The timeless tale of an ambitious yet corrupt King is brought to life on stage by the intersection of historic talent; William Shakespeare and Giuseppe Verdi.

Bite Size is as lovely as the tiny cupcakes they give you in the foyer before the show. It’s not the best collection of short plays that’s ever been put on, but it doesn’t aspire to be.

Alan Ball: Vampires, Death & The Mundane

For the uninitiated, Alan Ball is only the god of screenwriting for both TV and film on the face of the planet right now.

The Threepenny Opera | Sydney Theatre Company

This production is an absolute delight, one which really does grab you and refuse to let go until the final note has rung out, leaving you feeling spent, excited, and perhaps a little soiled. But in a good way.

The Cho Dependant Tour | Margaret Cho

This show is a triumphant return to form. Funny, funny woman.

Captivating, heart-felt and rich. Human Interest Story should not be missed.

Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
Stage Kiss | New Theatre
There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
As You Like It | Fingerless Theatre
Wit and beauty, pride and sorrow, self disgust and merriment
My Brilliant Career | Sydney Theatre Company
Based on an Australian literature classic, My Brilliant Career is destined to become an Australian theatrical classic.
Sistren | Griffin Theatre Company
Iolanthe and Janet Anderson work in cosmic, comedic accord, characterisation charismatic, timing impeccable, delivery precise, together a tour de force that ascends the cliché.
