Theatre review: Miss Peony, Belvoir Theatre
A generational and intercultural clash is played out in the competitive flurry of a beauty pageant.
Theatre review: Far Away, fortyfivedownstairs
A puzzle of a play that will confound those looking for easy answers.
Theatre review: Away, Theatre Works
One of Australia's classic plays returns in a new season.
Theatre review: Benefactors, Ensemble Theatre
Though well-executed, this play set in the 1960s, is dated and does not grapple with the modern housing crisis.
Music review: Symphony Series 4 Embrace, Adelaide Town Hall
A sentimental musical journey and a world premiere.
Circus review: Duck Pond, QPAC
Reimagining 'Swan Lake', Circa’s production is a delightfully fresh take on the art of circus.
Dance review: Jewels, Arts Centre Melbourne
Pretty and charming traditional ballet, though it lacks gravitas.
Theatre review: The Wizard of Oz, The National Theatre
A loving adaptation of an old favourite.
Theatre review: Just a Boy, Standing in Front of a Girl, fortyfivedownstairs
A contemporary adaptation of 'Medea', this production will definitely provoke discussion.
Theatre review: Shhhh, Red Stitch Actors Theatre
Desire, sex and consent – but the stories seem disconnected and ineffective as a whole.
