Theatre, dance and circus highlights 2023 part 4: Victoria

More dates for your performing arts diary.

Where has the time gone? It feels like only a couple of weeks ago that I set out to document the potential performing arts highlights of 2023 – and yet now we’re already in the dying days of February and autumn is (hopefully) just around the corner.

For a preview of the year in fine music see my colleague Suzannah Conway’s highlights; her precis of the opera sector is here. For a look at South Australia see here; West Australia and the NT are covered here; and the very first article in this protracted series, covering Queensland, NSW, the ACT and Tasmania, is here.
