Dance of the Imagination | Sydney Symphony

The orchestra under Caetani’s assured and powerful direction seemed to revel in displays of virtuosity that would terrify me.

Push Up is a tedious play. If ever there was a play that skimmed and skidded across the surface of its subject, dipping the odd toe in, without ever even looking like risking immersion, it's Push Up.

Watussi is all about the poetry of motion; the impulsive, incandescent and sensual. All their music is driving, engaging and instrumentally virtuosic.

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.
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.
My Brilliant Career | Sydney Theatre Company
Based on an Australian literature classic, My Brilliant Career is destined to become an Australian theatrical classic.
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.
