Just like the source material, this is a morality tale, a fantasy to reflect dysfunction, rectify disappointment and repair disillusion but legacy and intergenerational grief are tenacious task masters.

Entirely sung through, this is a musical with a proper and original score that still feels remarkably fresh and sits in staggering contrast to the slot machine pay outs of a Jukebox musical.

It’s as if the iconic singer has lent Newman her voice, so pitch-perfect is her tone.

Searching for Betty is a beautifully constructed story, that was thoroughly entertaining and made me a little bit nostalgic.

Dammit, Janet. I really loved this show. From the pitch-perfect Jason Donovan who stepped into the iconic fishnets with aplomb to the supporting cast, the 50th Anniversary production of Richard O’Brien’s cult classic, Rocky Horror Show was a triumph.

LaPaglia is simply outstanding as a salesman bartering down his own price. Believable, present, committed – every indignity is expertly handled, never demonstrated but achingly and authentically realised.
Oneiric stands out as one of the best NICA graduate showcases in memory. The show is a true fusion of contemporary dance with circus skills.
