    Hold Me Closer Tony Danza is bold, brash, and non-conforming dance-theatre work that – just like a pop song that you can’t get out of your head – is also deeply seductive. Reflecting a modern minefield of potential misrepresentations, ‘Tony’ confronts our awkward reality of responsibility through a choreography of…

    Genesian Theatre: Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime

    Genesian Theatre 420 Kent St, Sydney, NSW, Australia

    Editor's Choice

    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.
