August Strindberg’s Miss Julie is a dense, powerful play concerning class, desire and love, and the struggles between, and within, each of these.

If you like your faith sweet and syrupy with your cup running over you’ll love the boy’s ‘Raise the Praise’ tour. It’s Billy Graham on soufflé, it’s redemption on tick.

Wayne Tunks has revived the 'wow' factor in his work. The Rules of April is a damn good title for what is, in the main, a damn good play.

If you are up for seeing a man propped up two meters off the ground by 4 pointy tipped spears: this one is for you.

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.
