Reviews

Performance review: Elements of Freestyle, Joan Sutherland Theatre, Sydney Opera House
A fusion of urban arts and classical music with multigenerational appeal.

Opera review: Aphrodite, Carriageworks
A collaboration between the Sydney Chamber Opera and Omega Ensemble that favours cerebral engagement over emotional impact.

Theatre review: Blackrock, The MC Showroom
Nick Enright's 'Blackrock' is sadly as relevant today as it was in 1995 when it was first performed.

Theatre review: Happy-Go-Wrong, fortyfivedownstairs
This exploration of chronic illness fuelled existential angst doesn’t make the leap from fringe festival circuit to the fortyfivedownstairs stage.

Exhibition review: Kimono, NGV International
The enduring allure of kimonos through a chronological timeline.

Theatre review: Coriolanus, The Neilson Nutshell
A lesser-performed Shakespeare play still bears relevance to today.

Performance review: The Offering, Riverside Theatres
A poet and a cellist combine forces for a powerful night out.

Theatre review: The Play That Goes Wrong, Drama Theatre, Sydney Opera House
On its 10th anniversary this play is as silly and entertaining as it was a decade ago.

Theatre review: Super, Red Stitch Actors' Theatre
A super entertaining experience.

Book review: Past & Parallel Lives, Kaya Ortiz
A debut collection that explores identity through various techniques and modes.
