This production of Snow White is spectacular. Strong and sensual woman lead the way and this production will change the way you view this classic fairy tale.

What sounds like a silly as a supermarket trolley wheel romp, The Walworth Farce is a sinister story of history held hostage by homicidal patriarchy.

The musical Gypsy, is a near perfect show, exquisitely crafted by a collection of geniuses of the music theatre genre.

“This is not a story of reconciliation” but rather a pedal-to-the-metal indigenous revenge fantasy, presented as a giddy, gaudy and glorious pastiche of vigilante-superhero narratives and American Blaxploitation cinema.

Capturing both the careworn oppression and the wry impishness of her former self beginning to burst back up to the surface, Millerchip is a delight and a powerhouse, carrying the show almost effortlessly on her shoulders.

An extraordinary new play which takes us on a family saga across three generations of Pyrmont residents, encompassing the history of Sydney’s perpetual gentrification.

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.
The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels | Redfern Lane Productions
Unabashedly and unapologetically entertaining, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels delights in its hoax hokum, a whimsical hustle of musical comedy bustle.
Continuity | New Theatre
On the set of a big-budget Hollywood eco-thriller, the clock is ticking for an on time and under budget wrap.
Contradiction, conundrum, conflict, racism, misogyny and homophobia run through this play like a main circuit cable snaking through a moral minefield of explosive allegation.
Uked! is a sing along, string along, immersive jukebox musical, that's more folksy balladeering than an all out, all that jazz razzmatazz.
