Interview: Director Gary Abrahams on Yentl. “Sometimes you need to be self destructive to become who you’re meant to be.”
I got to have a brief chat with director Gary Abrahams who took a break from directing his new play to answer some of my questions about Yentl at the Sydney Opera House.
-
Ruins أطلال (Belvoir 25a) ★★★★
It’s quite rare that I watch a piece of independent theatre and leave pondering its beauty.
-
Well-Behaved Women (Belvoir) ★★★½
Songwriter Carmel Dean pokes fun at the patriarchy and heaps praise on some key stories of female rebels, iconoclasts, champions and quiet achievers throughout time.
-
Frankenstein (Theatre Royal) ★★★★
This is wide-screen theatre with an almost computer game sensibility to storytelling… and it’s a lot of fun.
-
Seventeen (Seymour Centre) ★★★
It’s the duality that makes Seventeen something special.
-
Gilgamesh (Carriageworks) ★★★½
Gilgamesh is a feast of visual imagination, utterly stunning to behold.
-
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!
-
Railed (Sydney Fringe) ★★★½
If sexy muscle unicorns and denim are your fetish, you’re in for an eyeful.
