-
Juicy Riot (Eternity Playhouse) ★★★★
It was loud, proud and one hell of a crowd.
-
First, Do No Harm (KXT/NIDA) ★★★½
Great situation, great characters – this is a fantastic way to burst out the gates.
-
The Roommate (Ensemble) ★★★★
It’s just nice to sit back and enjoy an easy, funny, mild play that’s produced perfectly.
-
Straight Panic (ATYP)
Three short comedies combine to make up Straight Panic, the triptych of one-act plays by Lachlan Parry poking fun at the gays, the straights and most importantly, the 00s.
-
A Queer Little Murder (Qtopia)
Writer/performer Savannah Hankinson imagines a manor house murder mystery of a particularly sapphic sort in A Queer Little Murder.
-
Mackenzie (Bell Shakespeare) ★★★★
It’s Macbeth, but done as a very dark teen comedy. And there are a few songs too (but it’s not a musical).
-
Skank Sinatra: The Name on Everybody’s Lips (Qtopia) ★★★½
Ol’ Blue Thighs is back, and she’s serving Broadway with a slice of skank.
-
W (Old Fitz) ★★★½
There are big questions lurking just underneath the battered skin of this sporting drama and it’s a rich field to play in.
-
Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey Bake a Cake (Old Fitz Late) ★★★★★
I say this as both a theatre reviewer and as a producer of reality TV cooking shows – this is a must see.
-
Prima Facie (Roslyn Packer) ★★★★★
The hype is real, and the reality more than lives up to it.
