Here’s another interview I did for the New Theatre production of Sweeney Todd, this time with the director Giles Gartrell-Mills. This was a pretty exciting as Giles has actually worked on London’s West End for most of his career, as both cast and crew, so it was interesting to hear his thoughts on the different theatre-circuits. The interview was originally posted on Arts …
This was so much better than I expected to be. The reason? It knew exactly what people expected it be, took that on board and didn’t take itself seriously. Fun and toe-curlingly cringey (in all the right places). Originally posted on The AU Review. — There is often a great risk in taking a well-loved …
SWING YOUR RAZOR HIGH SWEENEY RAISE IT TO THE SKY! Justin Cotta was glorious. Utterly disturbing of course, as Sweeney should be, but glorious. Definitely one of my longest reviews! Originally posted on The AU Review — Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd! The theatre is dark, the first harsh notes of the “Organ Prelude” …
This was SO much more impressive and beautiful than I anticipated it to be. The precision of the dancing/martial arts was spectacular, and I actually learnt quite a bit about Confucius! I’m hopefully going to something quite similar this week- The Imperial Bells of China. Originally posted on The AU Review — Often referred to …
Look, this certainly wasn’t the greatest thing I’ve ever seen, but the kids in the audience were loving it (even more so the kids actually in the production). I probably would have really enjoyed something like this as a child too so continue on amateur theatre! Originally posted on The AU Review — The Lion, …
This guy is so COOL! Nicest ever fellow, and just the most incredible facial expressions on stage. He was hauntingly good as Sweeney Todd, and I saw him more recently as Lord Capulet in Bell Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet. THOSE EYES! Also one of my most favourite responses ever to an interview question I’ve asked …

And now what do I have to say about seeing Das Musical Rebecca in Korea? Especially seeing as I saw it on my birthday!? Sylvester Levay Originally posted on Hello Asia. — Das Musical Rebecca is just what you’d expect from a Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay musical – it’s dark, it’s romantic, it has strong …
I REALLY miss these concerts, I think they were a fabulous array of talent for a great cause. They were also where I discovered one of my favourites pieces of music of all time- iOTA’s “Come Back For Me” (emotional perfection). Also Jan’s MCing was on point. So hilariously on point. Love her.

The Rob Guest Endowment Concert is one of my all-time favourite events on the Australian Arts calendar. It brings with it a lively room of musical theatre lovers and the atmosphere is simply spectacular. To me it is also such an integral part of supporting our young up and coming musical stars in reaching their full potential. The talent …
