Editor's Choice Bloom

Sydney Theatre Company: Bloom

Roslyn Packer Theatre 22 Hickson Rd, Sydney, NSW, Australia
This new Australian musical played to sold-out houses when it premiered at Melbourne Theatre Company in 2023. The fact that Tom Gleisner of Working Dog fame (The Castle, The Dish, Utopia, Have You Been Paying Attention?) wrote the book and lyrics was doubtless part of the appeal. Bloom (with music…
Jesus Christ Superstar

John Frost for Crossroads Live Australia: Jesus Christ Superstar

Princess Theatre, Melbourne 163 Spring St, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
The iconic global phenomenon, Jesus Christ Superstar is coming to Australia in 2024 with a mesmerising new production that has garnered unprecedented reviews and accolades as it has toured the US and UK, including winning an Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival. Featuring lyrics and music by Emmy, GRAMMY, Oscar and…
The Producers

Hayes Theatre Co: The Producers

Hayes Theatre Co 19 Greenknowe Avenue, Elizabeth Bay, NSW, Australia
Bialystock and Bloom! Those names strike terror and hysteria into anyone familiar with Mel Brooks’ classic cult-comedy film, or the smash-hit, record-breaking Broadway musical it inspired. Now, the show comes to the Hayes in an all-new production! The plot is simple: a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and a mild-mannered accountant come…
Annie (Melbourne)

John Frost for Crossroads Live Australia: Annie

Capitol Theatre, Sydney 13 Campbell St, Haymarket, NSW
The beloved tale of Annie has been capturing the hearts of theatregoers around the globe for generations. And now the production returns to the Capitol Theatre from March for a strictly limited season. Starring the incomparable Anthony Warlow as “Daddy” Warbucks, the show-stopping Debora Krizak as the infamous Miss Hannigan,…
Editor's Choice Hadestown

JONES Theatrical Group: Hadestown

Theatre Royal, Sydney 108 King St, Sydney, NSW, Australia
Anaïs Mitchell’s contemporary musical theatre retelling of the doomed love story of Orpheus and Eurydice is cleverly combined with another Greek myth – Hades’ abduction of Persephone, the goddess of the seasons. The mesmerising score, which draws on New Orleans jazz, blues, American folk, gospel and railroad songs, is brilliantly…

Editor's Choice The Lord of the Rings – A Musical Tale

GWB Entertainment: The Lord of the Rings – A Musical Tale

Comedy Theatre 240 Exhibition St,, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
Condensing J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic fantasy novel into a three-hour musical takes some doing, but the main plot points are here as Frodo Baggins and three fellow Hobbits set out on a dangerous journey to save Middle-earth by destroying the all-powerful One Ring. Most of the performers are actor-musicians and it’s…
