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 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 …
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.

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 …
Loved this show. Had some of my favourite Sydney musical theatre peeps- Rob Johnson, Debora Krizak and Blake Erickson! The musical itself is a really unique look into the working mind of one of the world’s greatest musical composers, Stephen Sondheim.

Here is another interview I did at the Wicked press call in Sydney back in 2014 (wow that really seems like a long time ago now), this time with Ryan Sheppard who was the dance captain for the production!

My first video interview!! I was so nervous and my voice is so… squeaky. Lucy was SO much like Glinda in real life though haha, she spoke exactly the same way and was just as sweet ❤ The review was originally posted on Arts on the AU. — the AU review interviews Lucy Durack to talk about returning …
This was my first chat with Squabbalogic Director Jay James-Moody, who I’ve chatted to a few times now! Really down-to-earth guy, who directs the most incredible stuff. I always really look forward to Squabbalogic productions. The review was originally posted on Arts on the AU. — Sondheim on Sondheim is an entirely unique production that presents the audience with, …
