Titanique (The Grand Electric) ★★★★
It’s all seamen and Céline fucking Dion in Sydney at the moment. Full review on The Queer Review.
-
Definitely NOT A Hungry Game: A Parody Musical (Sydney Fringe) ★★★
Dramafreak Productions are deconstructing and generally taking the piss out of the book trilogy that became a film quadrilogy that spawned a prequel but is for legal reasons definitely not Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games series.
-
UnWrapped: AUTO-TUNE (Sydney Opera House) ★★★★★
Re:group performance collective deliver their most emotionally engaging show to date.
-
Sunset Boulevard (Sarah’s Version) (Sydney Opera House) ★★★★
Sunset Boulevard is big, it’s the other musicals that got small.
-
Sister Act (Capitol Theatre) ★★★
If you like big numbers under coloured lights and want something to exorcise the winter blues, then this will be for you. Is it good? Well, as Mother Superior would say, “I have no words”.
-
Murder For Two (Riverside Parramatta) ★★★★★
After knocking us dead last year at Hayes, Murder For Two gets a short, sharp run at Riverside Parramatta. Maverick Newman and Gabbi Bolt are back with a bigger set, and a million characters to bring to life.
-
In The Heights (Sydney Opera House) ★★★½
There just isn’t a better venue to “look at the fireworks” than the Opera House.
-
Little Women (Hayes) ★★★
Little Women at the Hayes strips the show back to the core with an abstract staging that puts the focus on the words and vocals.
-
Ride The Cyclone (Hayes) ★★★★
Ride The Cyclone sees the team at the Hayes pull out all the stops and boy does it pay off. When you’re having this much fun, who cares if the plot treads water.
-
Chicago (Capitol Theatre) ★★★½
As great as the ol’ girl is… has she run out of steam?
