You Know We Belong Together is a wholesome, boundary-destroying show. It radiates with the pure pleasure of existing and performing to a real audience of real people.

Perth Festival Review: "White Spirit" is an "utterly immersive" experience
For this culturally curious reviewer, watching White Spirit was like eating a bite-sized portion of the Middle East, as I was filled for ninety minutes with the exuberant flavour of this beautiful region so sadly overlooked in the present
Perth Fest Review: "The Far Side of the Moon" is a marvel
The intense intimacy of a one man show paired with the grandiosity of the Heath Ledger Theatre on a Saturday night is a wonder to behold at this year's Perth Festival.
Fringe Review: "Sudden Skies" is a poignant piece of work
With a mastery of body and voice, highlighted by Biagioni's electric singing, Sudden Skies displays the power within a person to defy, and in turn to surrender. The innovative use of movement and intense vocal choices makes for a performance like no other this Fringe season.
Fringe Review: Condensed Literature - The Iliad
The play doesn't take itself too seriously, which has its hits and its misses.
Fringe Review: Sense and Spontaneity
As Perth’s Fringe season reaches its dusk, there have been some amazing pieces of theatre bursting its way onto the arts scene, and this totally improvised, Jane Austen inspired two-woman tour de force is no exception.
Perth Festival Review: Nassim
Using the technique from White Rabbit, Red Rabbit to execute this, a new actor is brought in each night, unrehearsed and unprepared for what lies ahead.
Fringe Review: All That Glitters is an insightful historical piece
Through three short performances, the play looks at how the element has shaped regional Western Australia for Indigenous Australians and European migrants, performed by Kalgoorlians themselves.
Fringe Review: A Modern Guide to Heroism and Sidekickery is simply super
This performance is a sweet, sweet thing, full to the brim and overflowing with charm and sass.
Fringe Review: 30 Minute Macbeth is brimming with energy
If you like Shakespeare but have a short attention span, you’ll probably find something to enjoy here.
Fringe Review: "The Three Deaths of Ebony Black" is enjoyable for the whole family
The Three Deaths of Ebony Black is a farcical romp reminiscent of Death at a Funeral - without the drugs, nudity and secret lovers. Which was a relief, because my date for the evening was my ten year old nephew.
Fringe Review: collageN is all up to you
An explorative work built on improvisation and audience interaction, CollageN is going where few have gone before.
PIAF REVIEW: TO A SIMPLE ROCK SONG
Lauded as one of the heavyweights of British dance, Michael Clark has finally brought his 'To a Simple Rock Song' dance production to Perth. Read our review here.
Fringe Review: MOLT is a playful exploration of the things we lose
A Fringe Festival newbie embarks on his first Fringe adventure with Rian Howlett’s journey into the Museum of Lost Things, an interdimensional black hole where all things lost go to live out their days.
PIAF REVIEW: BEYOND TIME
Resonant drumming, martial arts and serene set design grounds the oriental production held at the gorgeous His Majesty's Theatre.
PIAF REVIEW: IL N'EST PAS ENCORE MINUIT
This esteemed collective from the northern French city of Lille pushes the limits of physical ability and brings poetry to the body in motion with daring, gasp-inducing stunts. The 22 acrobats will make your jaw drop in wonder as they catapult each other through the air or create multi-storey human towers of power.
Perth Festival: "The Barbershop Chronicles" is a "Dynamic Bonzanza Full of Energy and Spectacle"
Rarely does a show with so many players capture the fundamental essence of human relationships, but this one has it in the bag. A diverse tale of individual and collective histories, a living tapestry for all who behold it, and one of those 'all' should be you.
Fringe Review: "The Beast and the Bride" is Not Your Average Bedtime Story
Testoni knows stories are anything but silly. She gives a voice and a face to a Victorian-era girl who is graceful and fierce, young in her curiosity, but wise in her insight.
Fringe Review: "Night Sweats" Lets all the freakishness hang out
I'm always impressed when small theatre shows transcend their limitations through an artful use of performance, light and sound. Timothy Green's Night Sweats is such a show.
Fringe Review: "Cardboard Kingdom" is Playful and Spirited
Cardboard Kingdom is the most heartfelt wakeup call imaginable. The passion on display in all facets of the play is the kind that made me fall in love with theatre in the first place.
