Amplified: The Exquisite Rock and Rage of Chrissy Amphlett

Jacaranda Productions and Seymour Centre present Amplified: The Exquisite Rock and Rage of Chrissy Amphlett, an electrifying ‘rock odyssey’ of music, storytelling and unapologetic attitude, from 15^th - 25^th April.

Following a sold-out, 5-star season at Belvoir St Theatre, beloved performer and writer Sheridan Harbridge (Griffin Theatre Co’s Prima Facie, MTC’s My Brilliant Career) is back fronting an incredible four-piece live band as she channels Chrissy's fierce spirit.

Chrissy Amphlett was a seismic force in a school uniform. She had the raw talent, stage-conquering energy and the rock’n’roll rasp. Her audacious blend of sexuality and vulnerability defined a generation. As the front woman for Divinyls she exploded onto the male-dominated scene, taking the band from the sticky carpets of Australian pubs to the top of the charts.

Filled with anthemic hits, intimate anecdotes and vivid memories from those who knew her best, join us on a kaleidoscopic tour into the heart of an artist well ahead of her time.

Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.
Uked! | Bondi Theatre Company
Uked! is a sing along, string along, immersive jukebox musical, that's more folksy balladeering than an all out, all that jazz razzmatazz.
Doubt | Sydney Theatre Company
Contradiction, conundrum, conflict, racism, misogyny and homophobia run through this play like a main circuit cable snaking through a moral minefield of explosive allegation.
The Can Principle | Jonny Pasvolsky
Following the unedifying edict that "there's a sucker born every minute", the show skewers the modern self-improvement economy in a piss-take parody of today's 'gurus' and snake-oil salesmen.
The Lark | Hey Dowling
Noni Hazlehurst brings Rose and The Lark to colourful and compelling life in this one-woman show.

The Book of Mormon
Once again we are treated to the door knocking, knee slapping, pearl clutching hilarity that has taken the world by storm and remained a popular success amongst the more devilish of us theatre patrons the world over.
Middle Raged | Women with Pockets and Andrew Kay & Associates
Beautiful voices across the board, a lovely ease with one another, and enough self-awareness to never let the comedy become caricature.
Pretty Woman The Musical
Adapting a beloved film with the cultural status of 1990s Pretty Woman is a huge creative swing.
The Jungle and the Sea | Belvoir St Theatre
The Jungle and the Sea is one of the best pieces of theatre I have ever seen.
