The latest reviews and critic recommendations from Australia - Adelaide.
This talented eight piece band took its non-stop dancing audience through the classics of the 1960's British pop rock explosion with 'fab' style and delivery.
Deception is both a wonderful magic show and a hilarious cabaret about Vinh Giang's and Matt Tarrant's journeys to become magicians
Michael Griffiths's committed portrayal of Annie Lennox is both powerful and hilarious.
Sung in English, this short, lively one act work is an ideal introduction to opera, with its tuneful melodies and comic subject matter.
The music has a country feel, but the lyrics are as Australian as kangaroos and koalas, reflecting both sides of the Pacific that inspired these songs.
From the moment that you entered, it was obvious that this was not going to be your typical classical recital.
J M Barrie's classic tale of the boy who never grew up, Peter Pan, is being presented by community theatre group, Reverb Theatre.
This spellbinding storyteller led us into the heart of his experience, the heart of himself, culminating in a totally entrancing experience.
It becomes a fight between the powers of good and evil, and it seems that The Darker cannot lose.
Nobody who loves the works of Dickens will want to miss this performance with all of its charm and humour.
Renee Gentle offers a tour de force performance, switching to and fro between so many diverse characters in a high energy production.
This show is raunchy, emotional, crazy, and hilarious.
It is Scala's strong, warm and amazingly expressive voice which steals the show
This is a most enjoyable production, and an opportunity to see this musical for the first time in Adelaide.
Palmer's wonderful humour is a mixture of the finest dad jokes and fantastically humorous, breast related observations.
It was everything that a Whovian could wish for, and the chance to peek into the TARDIS on one side of the stage, inspect the Cyberman on the other side, or get up close and personal with the three Daleks, kept the crowd happy.
Holly Augustine gets right inside the character of Chloe and gives a performance that could be used as a master class for aspiring actors.
The performance is full of fun, laughter music and comedy, and John Hinton even shows us Einstein, the rapper.
It was Westlake's and Lior's terrifically well written and performed song cycle which truly inspired and entranced the audience.
Julia Henning has come a very long way already, and it is clear that she is going to go much further and has a long career ahead of her.
Huge applause throughout the evening was nothing compared to the applause at the end of the performance, signalling another worthwhile and very popular choice for the Sessions 2014 season.
You will laugh, you will be moved, you might even shed a tear or two, such is the strength of this production, and the involvement and commitment of the four performers, who fully invest themselves in this wonderful work.
This was the second in the Sessions 2014 live music series at the Adelaide Festival Centre in the Space Theatre, the Ukrainian folk-fusion group, Yellow Blue Bus.
Babylon Circus, a French band, are possibly the most charismatic and happy bunch of performers I have ever seen.
This is certainly the best production of South Pacific that I have seen, and I have seen quite a few, including being involved with three productions myself.
