BWW Review: ANTHONY DE MARE Brings Majesty and Mastery for THE LIAISONS PROJECT at Hayes Theatre
We've all felt the sensation where we talk fondly about artistic legends from our time only to discover someone younger or of another genre having no idea and genuinely concerning you that your icons might be lost someday entirely, and what a sad day that would be. That's where absolute miracle arti...
BWW Review: BRYCE HALLIDAY Goes Full-Steam Ahead in BACK TO BASICS at Hayes Theatre
Mix the face of Brick-era Ben Folds, with the musical talent of Tim Minchin, with the stagecraft of Ross Gellar's music career and you've got Bryce Halliday. An adorkable juxtaposition of vocal simplicity and production complexity. A comedy-jazz musician in his prime, Halliday is looking anachronist...
BWW Review: SOMETHING ABOUT ALWAYS PULLS ON A LIFETIME OF HEARTSTRINGS at Hayes Theatre
It's funny how some of the most iconic moments, the most important figures in one's life can go by unnoticed, until one takes a raw moment of honesty and clarity when those easily emerge. I wonder if Simon Burke felt something like this as he brought a life's worth of story and song before us at the...

Readers can you hear me? Readers can you see me? Readers can you read me? And all the Barbra puns you can think of, whatever will get you to this irreverent, hilarious and vocally delightful cabar-gay that is so much more than an ode to Streisand!...
BWW Review: FLAME TREES TAKES A TWISTED TURN IN AUSTRALIANA TALE at Depot Theatre
Tales from our backyard need much more service in the broader scene, something Tunks Productions has long given local stories, and Flame Trees is no exception. The return of a young woman to the town she burned to a cinder several years ago is fraught with anger, regret and a huge secret. A tight-kn...

BWW Review: HEATHERS at Sydney Opera House
Hairspray. The Craft. Jawbreaker. Mean Girls. Can't Hardly Wait. Buffy. We would have none of these without Heathers. The flop-turned-cult-phenomenon film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater in 1988 was a black comedy that took on every young-adult issue and shot it in the face. It's perfect ...
BWW Review: A MAN WITH FIVE CHILDREN at Eternity Playhouse
There is no legend, living or dead, whose art hasn't been compromised in some way by fame. Those built to last are often those who turn their creative lens onto fame itself, exorcising their demons and their reputation in pursuit of true expression. Many in the Australian theatre scene believe homeg...
