‘Nu Disco!’ was lively.
Directed by Laura McAloney, ‘Nu-Disco!’ is a fun and fast show with an intense technical aesthetic and a witty truthfulness. With an entire night out crammed into 60 minutes, it is a brief but explosive exploration of nightlife, particularly from a feminine lens.

‘Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again.’ was uncomfortable.
With direction by Hannah Barr, Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again. was abrupt and graphic. A difficult script to stage, this production was courageous in its attempt to spread Birch’s message.

‘Macbeth’ was bold.
With a strong aesthetic component and dedication to the language, QSE’s first staging of ‘Macbeth’ was a spirited success.

‘The Normal Heart’ was intimate.
Ad Astra delivered an emotionally grounded rendition of ‘The Normal Heart’, touching on both the light and the shade of a powerful story.

‘The Boys’ was hard-hitting.
‘The Boys’ is a chilling tale of violence, toxic masculinity and family. The cast and crew of PIP Theatre’s production worked seamlessly to create a reflection of reality that draws attention to the horrors of domestic violence and sexualisation of women.
