Not going to lie- this was probably right up there with my least favourite things I’ve seen. Just not my style- too many depressing thoughts. The Director’s note: “Nioukhine outlines a detailed, ridiculous, distressing and absurd portrait of a futile existence”. No thanks, not for me. Originally posted on The AU Review. — There are …
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” …
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 …
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 …
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. The review was originally posted on Arts on the AU. — Something’s coming… as the …
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! The interview was originally posted on Arts on the AU. — the AU review interviews Ryan Sheppard to talk about returning …
