Culturally specific yet universal, set in the past but still so pertinent, Yentl is the story of a girl who laps up facts and theories like a thirsty horse at a stream

Crude, rude, kinky and slinky, La Clique combines vulgar vaudeville, bizarre burlesque and exquisite circus.

Sometimes, in an age where technology floods us with content, storytelling can feel like a lost art. Yet Waru reminds us that it is an integral part of the human experience.

Flying Fruit Fly Circus presents Big Sky. A wonderful exploration of physical ability from a team of dedicated young people. This show is a playful and inspiring piece for people of all ages.

Based on a true story, as much as any story is true, Augusta bubbles with bravura and fizzes with fun.

Julia is much more than a straight biographical play but a judgement on the world where outmoded, mouldy misogyny continues to exist.

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.
Stage Kiss | New Theatre
There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
My Brilliant Career | Sydney Theatre Company
Based on an Australian literature classic, My Brilliant Career is destined to become an Australian theatrical classic.
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.
Blind faith and rational belief are always sparring partners in dramatic conflict and so it is here with the power play tinged with superstition and salaciousness.
On the set of a big-budget Hollywood eco-thriller, the clock is ticking for an on time and under budget wrap.
