Too Human (KXT on Broadway) ★★½
Part ‘Percy Jackson’, part 80s teen sex farce, Too Human is funny as long as you don’t think about it too deeply.
-

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.
-

Chicago (Capitol Theatre) ★★★½
As great as the ol’ girl is… has she run out of steam?
-

Stolen (Sydney Theatre Co) ★★★★½
It is simply impossible to watch Stolen without a sense of sadness and rage brewing within you.
-

Switzerland (Ensemble Theatre) ★★★½
I can’t imagine the team at Ensemble Theatre knew that Netflix would drop its long anticipated ‘Ripley’, a new adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s ‘The Talented Mr Ripley’ at the same time as they had programmed Joanna Murray-Smith’s play Switzerland but synchronicity is a wonderful thing.

London: The Plays (Part One)
The Hills of California ★★★1/2 / Machinal ★★★★ / Minority Report ★★★ / People, Places and Things ★★★★★ I saw a wide variety of plays from big West End blockbusters to fringe two-handers. As always, more money and bigger names doesn’t always mean it’s a better show.
