Reuben Kaye’s signature sexually charged comedy was well and truly enGORGEd.

There is tension in every step – physically and narratively.

Abbott has taken life’s lemons and made some fine lemonade.

Abdalla resists reducing conflict to simple binaries.

Words & Music by Stephen Sondheim. Devised by Stephen Sondheim & Julia McKenzie. Craig Donnell for Impresario Productions. Foundry Theatre. Jan 6 - Feb 15, 2026. We’re kicking it old school in the New Year. And I’ve got to say it feels good to be opening 2026 by seeing (and hearing) some Sondheim—performed by the very best. Seriously, I want to do things to these vocals that would make the cast of…

Music & lyrics by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance. Book by Garry Marshall and J.F. Lawton. Based on the film by J.F. Lawton. Theatre Royal. Nov 30, 2025 - Mar 1, 2026. Let me start by saying Pretty Woman: The Musical is NOT the worst musical I’ve seen in 2025. That “honour” still goes to The Devil Wears Prada: The Musical…

The Ten Shows That Stuck With Me & a breakdown of the year.

Welcome to Christmas Eve in the Chinese Underworld,

This may be the final annual instalment of Sydney Dance Company’s showcase of the next generation of choreographic talent, but its influence will be felt for some time yet.

Cowbois, a queer fantasia on Western themes now playing at Seymour Centre, ricochets between tones at a furious pace.

It’s back — the most caustic of all domestic comedies.

Almost ten years on from the play’s debut (at the old KXT, as part of the Sydney Fringe 2016), this Atlantis has risen again.

“Remember the time…” – three friends getting together to reminisce becomes a passive-aggressive battle in the darkly funny Scottish domestic comedy So Young.

If you fancy heading interstate for a show & some touristing, I've got some shows you might be interested in checking out.

Bigger, louder and flashier, The Lovers rivals & Juliet for the Pop Shakespeare crown.

Steven Kramer delivers a remarkable trifecta: great music, sharp lyrics, and an outrageously bonkers book to match.

Yes, it’s true, the cast are completely nude — but it’s not just a naked cry for attention, at least not in the way you think it is.

Another piece of my break down of the 2026 Sydney theatrical season, this time looking at the musicals coming our way (and some other bits & pieces).

Based on the true story of Deborah Lawrie’s battle to become Australia’s first female commercial airline pilot, it has all the hallmarks of a feel-good hit of the summer – even if we’re still in spring.

The characters in James Fritz’s sexting drama have all the foibles of real people in an unexpected and seemingly impossible situation, which makes for some juicy, compelling drama.
