Theatre Review: Hold Your Breath (Count to Ten) is Honest and Meaningful
The Blue Room's latest show, Hold Your Breath (Count To Ten), is a play about a play about the way a man's mind is so often its own worst enemy. Daley's story is very informative in its telling, if slightly clinical, and provides the audience with a lot of food for thought
Fringe Review: "Banned" is an Empathetic, Sincere Success
Banned is a thought provoking piece of work that deftly examines a myriad of social issues in a sensitive and nuanced yet entertaining manner.
Theatre Review: Western Sky Theatre's Engrossing Adaption of Once We Lived Here
Once We Lived Here is a timeless tragicomedy that makes its audience alternate between laughing and crying, sometimes both at the same time. The cast delivered strong characters all round with an authenticity that is hard to find in such dramatised and musical theatre.
Theatre Review: 'Laika' Reaches Stratospheric Heights
At the hands of master craftsman and director Scott McArdle, a transformation occurs: the story of the Soviet space race goes from a strong script, eloquent and thought provoking but still a mere script, into the play embodied by five superb actors and a genius sound guy at the Blue Room Theatre this month.

REVIEW: Toast is an Apt and Astoundingly Accurate Portrayal of Grief and Family
I had high expectations going into Toast, but nothing could have prepared me for the real thing.
TOAST: A Conversation with Emily McLean, Director of New Blue Room Show
Brand new at the Blue Room Theatre this month is a new Western Australian born and raised show: Toast. We got the chance to discuss this new show with director Emily McLean in the lead-up to its premiere.
FRINGE REVIEW: Lucidity Offers an Intriguing Look on Reality
Lucidity, and the phenomenon of lucid dreaming it explores, is such a fascinating concept. The human endeavour to control the conventionally uncontrollable is examined to a T through the topic, as well as grief, moving forward, responsibility and, ultimately, the essence of love.
REVIEW: 600 Seconds Offers the Entire Fringe Experience in 60 Minutes
If you see anything at Fringe this year, 600 Seconds is probably your safest bet, simply because it exists as a distilled amalgamation of everything else on offer.
