Exhibition review: Angelica Mesiti: The Rites of When, AGNSW
Angelica Mesiti delivers a complex and immersive video work, but it is overshadowed by the architecture of the Tank gallery.

A one-person show exploring toxic masculinity and domestic abuse.

Theatre review: Ten Years to Home, KXT on Broadway
An autobiographical play that traverses the universal themes of migration, identity and belonging.

A new pet rabbit becomes the focal point for a grieving family.

Book review: Skysong, C A Wright

Comedy review: Big Nose Big Dreams, Sydney Fringe Festival
A debut solo show from an Egyptian-Australian writer and comic who avoids the usual diaspora stories.

Fluoro-lit ballet that has little to do with the classic fairytale.
