Review Royalty: An Award Extravaganza At Newcastle Fringe

What do you do when some crazy woman writes a fake google review about you? Make a whole theatre show about online reviews of course!!!

A theatrical exploration of the internet's opinion-driven culture, in particular the crazy world of the infamous online review. Good, bad or just plain pathetic (among other less polite words), it's posted online for all to see and I think it's about time we reviewed some of these questionable reviews. With the help of the audience, I seek to crown the most ridiculous stupid online review of all time, and give it its place in history, as the attention seeking writer desperately hoped for, just maybe not in this way.....

March 16 and 17 at 7.30pm, and March 24 at 4.30pm at Memorial Hall Theatre, part of Adamstown Uniting Church, as part of Newcastle Fringe.

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.
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.
Anastasia – The Broadway Musical
Anastasia is a spectacle and the technical prowess is spectacular.
Gutenberg! The Musical
As befitting a work honouring the inventor of the printing press, Gutenberg! The Musical! is enamoured of words, drunk on words, intoxicated with text, mad for the metaphor, passionate for the pun.

MJ the Musical
MJ the Musical takes you on an immersive experience, like a montage of Michael’s memories and influences leading up to his ‘Dangerous’ tour.
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.
Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.
Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
Heathers The Musical
Capturing the essence of its predecessor, Heathers The Musical is an absurdly comic production that doesn’t just walk the line of polite society but plans to blow it all up with reckless abandon.
