Editor's Choice The Play That Goes Wrong

GMG Productions: The Play That Goes Wrong

Athenaeum Theatre 188 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
If you just want a good laugh, look no further than The Play That Goes Wrong, in which the inept Cornley Drama Society attempts to stage a 1920s murder mystery. It’s not as clever as Michael Frayn’s inspired Noises Off, but it’s fun. Co-written by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry…

Editor's Choice The Book of Mormon

JONES Theatrical Group: The Book of Mormon

Capitol Theatre, Sydney 13 Campbell St, Haymarket, NSW
Hello! The Mormons are back! First seen in Australia in 2017, The Book of Mormon is blasphemous, scurrilous, puerile, rude, satirical – and one of the funniest, sweetest, most joyous musicals ever staged. Written by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, with Robert Lopez, the 2011 show won…

Chess – The Musical

The Round 379 - 399 Whitehorse Road,, Nunawading, VIC
When American grandmaster Freddie Trumper faces off against Russian champion Anatoly Sergievsky, their rivalry extends beyond the chessboard.

With lyrics by Tim Rice (Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita) and…
Garden of Earthly Delights

Luminescence Chamber Singers: Garden of Earthly Delights

St Bernard's Church, Batehaven 2 David Ave, Batehaven, NSW, Australia
A garden teeming with temptation and desire, grotesque creatures and improbable scenes of surrender: the uninhibited world of Hieronymus Bosch’s 500-year-old triptych “De tuin der lusten”. Baffling his Dutch contemporaries and the casual tourists in Madrid’s Prado in equal measure (not to mention generations of art critics) Bosch’s Garden of…
Grandpa Poseidon

Wright & Grainger: Grandpa Poseidon

37 George 37 George St, The Rocks, NSW, Australia
A kid is on holiday in a seaside town. A seagull is stealing a chip. And Poseidon is sat at a bus stop staring at the ocean. It’s a story about being somewhere that feels new, about being scared of change, about talking, listening and helping someone find their feet…

Amplified: The Exquisite Rock and Rage of Chrissy Amphlett

Brisbane Festival: Amplified: The Exquisite Rock and Rage of Chrissy Amphlett

Brisbane Powerhouse 119 Lamington St, New Farm, QLD, Australia
A live-wire journey through the words and music of the Divinyls’ Chrissy Amphlett, the rebel-queen of Australian rock. Chrissy Amphlett was a seismic force in a school uniform.
