Kate Smurthwaite: Milo Standards: Penis De Milo

Brewlab 22 Gepp Parade, Hobart, Derwent Park, TAS, Australia
The (drag) king of comedy is coming to Brewlab! The terrifying alter-ego of feminist comedian Kate Smurthwaite unzips the trousers of truth and lays it on the table. With dating tips from his hit podcast The Schlong Game and masculinity so toxic Woodside would pump it in the sea, Milo…
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…
