Live Review

Review: Housework (State Theatre Company South Australia)

Some stellar performances, but this satire set in the corridors of power in Canberra doesn't deliver on the promise of an "incisive deep dive".

Review: Follies (Victorian Opera)

A sumptuous, perfectly cast production of this rarely performed musical gives deeply satisfying context to some of Sondheim’s most loved songs.

Review: Shirley Valentine (Neil Gooding Productions & Woodward Productions)

A charmer of a performance from Natalie Bassingthwaighte, but 40 years after it was written, Shirley Valentine feels more nostalgic than necessary.
