Reviews
Mahler 7
Another first-rate instalment in the MSO’s Mahler Cycle.
Constellations
A brilliant thought-provoking play examines our human condition with love and humour.
Henry Purcell & His World – Music for a While
Though more from our world than Purcell’s, some terrific entertainment by Ensemble L’Arpeggiata.
Epic Fragments
Another first-rate performance by the Australia Piano Quartet with a distinguished guest.
Calamity Jane
Virginia Gay as Calamity Jane is superb.
Blackrock
A focus on male culture through a male perspective unwittingly reinforces ingrained chauvanism.
Cold Light
A smart, sassy adaptation of Frank Moorhouse’s seminal novel of the coming to age of Canberra.
Richard 3
It’s rare that a play receives such hype and attention before its debut, and rarer still when it so deserves…
A Simple Favour by Darcey Bell
A Simple Favour is a wannabe Gone Girl sensation that falls flat with weak characters.
Faith Healer
Melbourne audiences will be praising the Lord that they get to see this award winning production.
