The Play That Goes Wrong (Sydney Opera House) ★★★½
Settle back with a show you already know will deliver a hilarious night out.
-

Wuthering Heights (Roslyn Packer) ★★★★
Iconic and iconoclastic, British director Emma Rice’s Wuthering Heights hits Sydney like a gale-force wind whipping across the moors.
-

Peter & the Starcatcher (Capitol Theatre) ★★★★
If, like me, you’re a sucker for fairy lights and the odd fart joke, you’ll love this Peter Pan prequel.
-

Dark Noon (Sydney Festival) ★★★½
Be warned, it’s confronting, and for those in the front row, unexpectedly interactive.
-

Sweat (Sydney Theatre Co) ★★★
Of the Pulitzer Prize winning plays on Sydney stages right now, STC’s Sweat and Belvoir’s August: Osage County, you can guess which one I’d rewatch last.
-

The Inheritance, Parts 1 & 2 (Seymour Centre) ★★★★½
Grab a cushion and strap yourself in for a literary, theatrical marathon because The Inheritance has finally come to Sydney!
-

Flat Earthers: The Musical (Griffin/Hayes) ★★½
What threw me was the fact this was a co-production between Hayes and Griffin, leading me to expect something with a slightly higher IQ than what we get.
-

Ruins أطلال (Belvoir 25a) ★★★★
It’s quite rare that I watch a piece of independent theatre and leave pondering its beauty.
-

Golden Blood 黄金血液 (Sydney Theatre Co) ★★★★
This may be Tong’s playwriting debut but Golden Blood is a terrifically sharp 90 minute two-hander.
-

The Queen’s Nanny (Ensemble Theatre) ★★★★
The more I think about The Queen’s Nanny, the more it makes me smile.
