What's On

We Are The Tigers

Aren’t you just dying to be a Tiger?

It’s the annual sleepover of the Giles Corey High Cheerleading Squad, and team captain Riley is determined to lead her squad to redemption after last year’s spectacular flop. But what starts as a night of pizza and team bonding in the basement quickly spirals into chaos — there’s a killer on the loose and one of their own is dead. Will the squad rally together, or will the pyramid collapse for good?

Surely the high school drama of viral fails, bad grades, lusty boyfriends, and the ever-rank mascot costume will finally take a backseat to justice and retribution… or will they? Never underestimate the determination and self-preservation of a high school cheerleader.

This ensemble-driven whodunit is a gloriously catchy production, in the vein of Hayes hits like Heathers: The Musical, Zombie! The Musical, and Murder for Two—a seriously silly, pop-rock thriller where cheer meets fear. Is it team spirit? Or the spirit of their dead teammates?

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.
Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels | Redfern Lane Productions
Unabashedly and unapologetically entertaining, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels delights in its hoax hokum, a whimsical hustle of musical comedy bustle.
Continuity | New Theatre
On the set of a big-budget Hollywood eco-thriller, the clock is ticking for an on time and under budget wrap.

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.
The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
