‘Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes’ was puzzling.
Amongst the captivating comedic writing, taboo topics of age, sex and power dynamics, and overall explorations of reality dismantling naïve or misguided expectations, Offside Theatre Company combines captivating performance with detailed design and confident direction.
‘Alone At Last’ was indulgent.
Fresh from its critically acclaimed debut season in the Adelaide Fringe, Brendan MacLean graced the Brisbane Powerhouse’s MELT festival with ‘Alone At Last’. This cabaret performance brought a rich selection of the performer’s original music along with covers and renditions from the shows that have made him a star of the stage.
‘First Casualty’ was potent.
Artistic Director Lee Lewis leads an emboldened and dexterous cast in ‘First Casualty’. The actors portray the diverse, dedicated and disheartened serving soldiers, who fuse as a pack to tell Christopher Johnston’s harrowing stories from his memories as a soldier in Iraq and Afghanistan.
