Christina Rosetti's poem 'The Goblin Market,' explores the themes of temptation, sacrifice, and the loss of innocence and has been the subject of varied interpretations and creative adaptations ever since its publication in 1862. One such adaptation is a musical version by Polly Pen and Peggy Harmon which premiered in 1985 and had a successful run off-Broadway at Circle in the Square. This week, Pen and Harmon's piece opens at Burning Coal Theatre as part of The Women's Theatre Festival, and Director Ashley Popio says Rosetti's poem is as timely as ever. 'Here are two sisters that are coming of age and what happens to them is they dare to step off the path and they are attacked by goblins,' she says. 'And isn't that sort of a metaphor for what happens to us as women today if we dare to stray from the path.' 'So, one of the reasons we chose to cast this show with one black sister and one white sister, is we wanted to show that through intersectional feminism, women supporting each other no matter what, putting sisterhood first, that we can indeed fight those goblins together and emerge triumphant,' she adds. The show, which marks the first time The Women's Theatre Festival has embarked on a musical, combines elements of theater, ballet, and classical music to create an air of magic, which Popio calls addictive.

The latest stage adaption in the blockbuster Treehouse series returns to delight Sydney families, with new shows announced at The Concourse in Chatswood from 27th to 29th July and the Seymour Centre from 3rd to 7th August.

Ahead of their debut album Treehouse, SOFI TUKKER shares the music video for their latest single'Baby I'm A Queen.' Steeped in raucous guitars and anthemic lyricism, the track is a full-blown hands in the air tune that's ready to jump start your weekend. The song was written about embracing tumultuousness and vulnerability. 'Just because you are vulnerable, doesn't mean you have to let yourself be belittled or infantilized (why is 'baby' the default nickname?)' the band says of the song. 'We are strong and empowered because we cry, because we desire, and because of what is chaotic about us. This song is about standing up as strong and powerful, because of that courage to share ourselves. It's about being both a baby and a queen at the same time. '
