Sunset Boulevard (Silvie’s Version) (Sydney Opera House) ★★★★½
I wanted to see Silvie Paladino in the role of Norma Desmond. So I trundled down to the Opera House on a balmy autumnal Sydney night for another hit of old Hollywood.

Titanique (The Grand Electric) ★★★★
It’s all seamen and Céline fucking Dion in Sydney at the moment. Full review on The Queer Review.
-
Bangers & Mash (Sydney Fringe) ★★★★
What’s long, phallic & salty, yet somehow still a “comfort food”? Bangers & Mash. Be quick, you’ve only got till Saturday to catch it!
-
All Boys (KXT on Broadway) ★★★★
As a piece of independent theatre, All Boys is instantly impressive. For a budget-tight show full of debuts and recent drama school grads it is extraordinary. This is just great theatre.

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.
-
Hillsong Boy (Sydney Fringe) ★★★½
The impulse to make this show a new form of “ministry” can be hard for a Hillsong survivor to resist.
-
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.
-
UnWrapped: Class Act (Sydney Opera House) ★★★½
Mish Grigor’s Class Act uses the tale of My Fair Lady to attack the insidious class divide in Australia, and particularly the arts industry.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (Belvoir) ★★★★★
Belvoir doing what Belvoir does best.
