What's On

An Inspector Calls
 

A celebratory evening for the Birling family is interrupted by the arrival of the mysterious Inspector Goole. As an investigation unfolds, it is revealed that each family member played a part in the death a young woman. This classic play is a must-see for a whole new generation.

When Inspector Goole arrives unexpectedly at the prosperous Birling family home, their peaceful dinner party is shattered by his investigations into the death of a young woman named Eva Smith.  His startling revelations shake the very foundations of their lives and challenge us all to examine our consciences.  The play veers from a typical “who done it” to exploring the deeper question of “what did it”.  Priestley critiques the selfishness and moral indifference of the upper class, urging audiences to reflect on their responsibilities towards others as it is revealed how each of the players contributed to another’s tragic end. More relevant now than ever, this classic play is a must-see for a whole new generation.

  • Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    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
    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
    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 is a spectacle and the technical prowess is spectacular.
  • Gutenberg! The Musical
    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.

    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.
  • Heathers The Musical
    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.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    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.
