A man and woman, unnamed, stand in a small square crate on an otherwise empty stage, riffing on possible scenarios for a future earth. It is an experience, rather like reading each blurb in the science fiction section of a book shop.

Schlong and dance, tits and arse, Blanc de Blanc is a champagne themed burlesque that's basic as a beer hall.

Energetic and proficient in timing and technique, the actors give their own little master class in theatrical performance.

It is an enigma that The Fantasticks, nowplaying at the Hayes Theatre, could be the longest running musical theatre show in New York, playing for 42 years from 1960 and then a revival in 2006 that is still running.

Meow Meow is a wonderfully creative individual with a sharp eye and superb vocal talent. Her patter is often witty and amusing and for the most part well conceptualized. However it is the voice that is the gold mine here.

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.
