Theatre Review: Blessed Union (Belvoir St Theatre, Sydney) ★★★★★

There’s a simple pleasure to be had in sitting back and watching everything on stage being done well. Belvoir’s new queer family dramedy, Blessed Union, is seamlessly terrific. Funny, emotive, and probing. Flawless. No notes. I could end the review here, but obviously I won't... Ruth (Danielle Cormack) and Judith (Maude Davey) have always upheld... Continue Reading →

Theatre Review: Chicago starring Jinkx Monsoon as Matron “Mama” Morton (Ambassador Theatre, Broadway) ★★★★★

When a production has been running for as long as Chicago has—over 26 years on Broadway—there's an expectation that it might have become a dusty museum piece, but this one continues to razzle dazzle 'em eight shows a week.

Theatre Review: The Village! A Disco Daydream (Dixon Place, New York) ★★★★

Ever dodged a legion of hurtling luxury baby strollers on Bleecker Street, only to run into a gaggle of tourists taking selfies outside Carrie's stoop on Perry, and dreamed of going back to Greenwich Village in the late 70s—during that fleeting era of queer liberation post-Stonewall and pre-AIDS—even just for one evening?

Theatre Review: The Collaboration (Samuel J. Friedman Theatre, Broadway) ★★★★

We hear the word collaboration a lot these days, whether it's the UNIQLO x JW Anderson fall/winter collection, a hit single from Sam Smith and Kim Petras, or an OnlyFans euphemism for, well, you know what. Anthony McCarten's latest play, receiving its US premiere on Broadway right now, takes us into the midst of one... Continue Reading →

Theatre Review: Queer As Flux (Sydney Opera House Studio) ★★★1/2

Following acclaimed runs at Brisbane Powerhouse and The Blue Room Theatre, Zac Callaghan’s one-person show, Queer As Flux, finally hits Sydney highlighting how all of us, as individuals and as a culture, are constantly in flux, transitioning, and becoming something new.

Theatre Review: End Of. (Griffin Theatre Company, Sydney) ★★★1/2

Ash Flanders' one-person show, End Of., is a mood. It’s a bizarre ride through death, grammar, and bad acid trips. I guess I’m trying to say that End Of. is a bit messy and incoherent, but then who said the destination had to be as good as the journey anyway? A succession of stories both... Continue Reading →

Theatre Review: Tylwyth (Sherman Theatre, Cardiff) ★★★★

Tylwyth revisits the group of characters first seen ten years ago in Sherman Associate Artist Daf James’ award-winning Llwyth.
