-

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

Counting & Cracking (Belvoir) ★★★★★
Not that Counting & Cracking needs another five star review this late in its lifespan – but I’m happy to give it one for posterity.
-

Sunset Strip (New Theatre) ★★★
Misery loves company, and Suzie Miller’s Sunset Strip sees two sisters deal with their own pain in different ways.
-

Dracula (Sydney Theatre Co) ★★★★
Sydney Theatre Company’s Dracula isn’t just theatre, it’s an event and a milestone.
-
![[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.
-

Ink (New Theatre) ★★★★
Director Louise Fischer has taken an excellent script and worked wonders on a micro-budget.
-

King James (Old Fitz) ★★½
Two guys meet in a bar. It may sound like the set-up to a joke, but it’s not.
-

American Signs (Sydney Theatre Co) ★★★★
No one likes management consultants. Even management consultants don’t like management consultants. It takes a performer of unique empathy to make us care for The Consultant and thankfully Catherine Văn-Davies is dynamic in this one-person show.
-

Master Class (Ensemble) ★★★½
Famed soprano Maria Callas is played, mostly, for laughs in Terrence McNally’s Tony Award winning play, giving Lucia Mastrantone the chance to work the room and terrorise her fellow performers.
-

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.
