The Children | Melbourne Theatre Company
Massively thought provoking and enjoyable, The Children powerfully couples eco morality with a painful study of physical decline.
Melbourne Reviews
The stage adaptation by Tom Wright has adroitly captured the complex nature of this story, one full of contrasts – a fun picnic turned tragedy, English rules and regulations as opposed to the lawlessness of Australian bush and the diminutive schools girls gazing up at a towering rock.

Dolly Diamond's 15-Year Anniversary Gala
Dolly and a group of her very talented friends joined forces and hands on Saturday and delivered an incredibly enjoyable evening of razor sharp asides, astute observations and a thunderstorm of glitteringly camp costumes.

Falsettos | StageArt
Like a series of extraordinary auditions, this show is a performers gift because no one is without an opportunity to deliver. In a lesser production this could clearly be perilous for some but with performers of this calibre, the audience really is the winner.
On paper, Priscilla has all the ingredients for a fun night out, but in practice she is beginning to show signs of her age.

RIOT | Thisispopbaby
Tightly clad and tightly choreographed, Riot, created and directed by Jennifer Jennings & Phillip McMahon, delivers 90 minutes of joyously indulgent irreverence underpinned by calls to think beyond our current servings of politics, religion and social media.
Killjoy-Destroy the Fantasy is as confronting, as it is beautiful, as hard to watch, as it is hilarious and ultimately, a joyful celebration of our differences.
In the intimacy of the Lawler Theatre, the show starts off casually, with the house lights still up and Muggleton engaging in caustic banter with her audience, some of it improvised, warming to her role as Callas. But once the character of the prima donna is well established, she calls in the first student or ‘victim’ to face her formidable tutor.
