Although the bad-taste creature-feature parody angle of the show’s subject matter may not be to the taste of the My Fair Lady crowd, this is a cracker of a show for those who want the chance to see an excellent smaller production

What a fascinating program. The Song Company, under the musical direction of their new leader Antony Pitts, sang three Bach motets alongside choral music from the 19th century which specifically reflected Bach’s influence.

The Blind Giant is Dancing conjures an image of an enormous, unwieldy, dangerous and mischievous creature, set to cause havoc. Is the giant capitalism or is it the self doubt in us that drives the need for approbation and power, whatever the cost?

All My Love is a misfortunate love story that spans not only time but the earth itself. It is a slow story of a love that was cut short by a meddling mother.

The heart of the work derives from a series of revealing monologues peppered throughout the piece, that have been drawn from interviews with men and women from Broome and environs.

A confluence of errors – certainly not a comedy – made my viewing of Illuminate Educate's production of Life Without Me by Daniel Keene at the Reginald Theatre in the Seymour Centre, truncated, to say the least.

Arcadia sees the much anticipated return of the work of Tom Stoppard, grandmaster of the play of ideas, to the Sydney Theatre Company. This time he tackles literary History and Chaos Theory.

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.
At Home at the Zoo luxuriates in the intensity of Albee’s ferocious humour, mood and impulse, a plunge into loneliness and aloneness leavened by laughter.
