The Past is a Wild Party (Qtopia) ★★★★
Queer lit collides with queer life in Noëlle Janaczewska’s one-woman show, The Past is a Wild Party.
-

swim (Griffin) ★★★½
In Ellen van Neerven’s swim everything is fluid. Memory, emotion and, of course, water.

![[Your Name] (KXT on Broadway) ★★★★](https://culturalbinge.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/untitled-design-55.jpeg?w=1024)
[Your Name] (KXT on Broadway) ★★★★
It’s horny, fumbling, silly and strangely emotional – kind of like watching the early years of Tumblr being brought to life on stage.
-

dog (KXT on Broadway) ★★★
With little dialogue, and little plot driving the story, dog is not a comfortable watch.

London: The Plays (Part Two)
Long Day’s Journey Into Night ★★★ / For Black Boys Who Have Considered Suicide When The Hue Gets Too Heavy ★★★★★ / Remembrance Monday ★★★ / Spirited Away ★★★1/2 This kind of variety is why I love London.
-

A Case for the Existence of God (Seymour Centre) ★★★½
A Case for the Existence of God feels fresh in the way it handles male relationships and masculine ennui (or “crisis of masculinity” if you prefer).
-

Holding The Man (Belvoir) ★★★★
Holding The Man is dear to me. I can’t remember how many copies of the original book I’ve given away over the years, or how many times I re-read it.
-

Yentl (Malthouse) ★★★★★
This is first rate theatre with literally nothing to critique. Worth a trip to Melbourne to see it all on its own, we can only beg the theatre gods, or the yeytser ho’re, for a Sydney transfer.
-

Homos, or Everyone in America (New Theatre) ★★★
What makes gay relationships different to straight ones? Set around the peak time of the fight for marriage equality in the US, Homos, or Everyone in America looks at tug of war between hetero-normative coupling, polyamory and what life for a gay couple is like once things become equal.
-

Shitty (Belvoir 25a) ★★★★
What’s more horrific than turning 30 and looking for love?
