Before Rent became a cultural and theatrical phenomenon, composer Jonathan Larson was a relative unknown in the industry grappling with his accomplishments. His struggles with himself, those around him, and self imposed deadlines gave rise to TICK TICK BOOM, a semi-autobiographical musical playing for a limited season at Subiaco Arts Centre.
I once asked a friend for recommendations of good musicals, and they suggested SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL. Having finally had the chance to see it thanks to HAMA Productions' I can readily see why my friend answered so quickly, and Seussical immediately becomes one of my favourites on the back of a wonderful retelling with top quality cast and staging.
There is always plenty of nostalgia around GREASE, something which Drew Anthony Creative’s latest production was more than happy to tap into. The on stage cast shouldered the responsibility themselves and put on an outstanding show at an interesting and exciting new theatre in Northbridge.
With a soundtrack full of ABBA hits, MAMMA MIA! is a popular musical that has broken records all around the world. Serasi Entertainment's Perth production showcases the cultural icons of ABBA perfectly, with wonderful performances and clever staging being enhanced, rather than driven, by the soundtrack full of classics.
The Addams Family has an enduring legacy originating as a single frame cartoons to now having spawned several TV series and movies. The musical follows in a similar vein and Zealous Productions brought together a most impressive team of performers and creatives to ensure that THE ADDAMS FAMILY hits every mark with an entertaining production.
