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

Cats (Theatre Royal) ★★★½
Grab your leg warmers, Sydney, and escape the cold outside – Cats is back.
-

Eureka Day (Seymour) ★★★★
Parents of school kids are just the ****ing worst.
-

Mary Jane (Old Fitz) ★★★★
This is pure theatre—a great text combined with sympathetic acting—storytelling at its best.
-

Beetlejuice (Regent Theatre) ★★★★
Forget that stripey creep in the title—the name you’ll want to say three times is “Erin Clare,” “Erin Clare,” “Erin Clare!”
-

The Birds (Malthouse) ★★★
Forget Alfred Hitchcock’s classic cinematic thriller. Forget Daphne du Maurier’s original story. Louise Fox has taken the frightening premise of an avian revolt against humanity and placed it in Australia.
-

And Then There Were None (Theatre Royal) ★★★
Ten strangers are invited to a secluded island mansion under false pretences. Once assembled, a pre-recorded voice accuses each of them of murder. But who is the mysterious Mr UN Owen who brought them all here? And who is killing them off, one by one?
-

Heaven (Qtopia) ★★★½
Heaven is a later-in-life tale of self-discovery firmly rooted in character.
-

Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (Hayes) ★★★★
If chu only see one musical in Sydney this week. Make sure chu choose Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.
-

I & You (Belvoir 25a) ★★★½
It’s the most YA of YA plots—you could probably rename Lauren Gunderson’s 2014 teen romance I and You something like The Fault in Our Star Turtles (you’ll get it when you see the show).
