Funny, honest and informative, Super-FANNY-Tastic is a show straight from the heart.

Interview: Jay Laga'aia discusses Peter Pan Goes Wrong
It was an absolute honour to interview Jay Laga’aia – a familiar face on Australian TV as well as numerous musicals. We discussed his thoughts on Peter Pan Goes Wrong, his previous work and what’s to come in the future.
Theatre Review: Julia Robertson Shines in Blueberry Play
It would be an understatement to say that Blueberry Play makes you feel.

Our Sandman: An Immersive and Relaxing Experience
‘As you arrive, you are offered a cup of herbal tea and invited to remove your shoes….’ An excellent start to an excellent show that’s definitely worth getting out of bed for.
'A Very Kransky Christmas' is charming and macabre
The jokes carried punchlines which were reminiscent of the nativity and varied widely between bittersweet and gross-out homour in style.
"Stay With Us" Is Theatre That Makes You Think and Feel
Stay With Us is the latest offering from Perth theatre company Last Great Hunt. It’s a space responsive work, set in the rooms and foyer of Riverview Hotel.
THEATRE REVIEW: 'Bare: A Pop Opera' perfectly encapsulates the struggles of adolescence & coming out
Despite its crude humour, Bare: A Pop Opera perfectly encapsulates the struggles of adolescence and the difficulties of coming out.
Theatre Review: The "Frankie's" Experience is Ambitious and Hilarious
Frankie’s is a sitcom set in a bar, where the regulars become part of each other’s lives and we become part of theirs. Except it’s not television, its theatre, and it’s not heavily scripted with a laugh track added after - it’s all improvised, and the laughs are real.
REVIEW: Bill Murray, Jan Vogler & Friends at Riverside Theatre
The high brow literature and classical music concept fooled me into thinking there was some social or political statement they were trying to make. But in the end, this show is about friendship and stories — just like Bill himself.
Medusa: this Halloween's Horror Story
Cultural commentary and Allen’s lolly snakes combine for a wonderful piece of theatre at The Blue Room.
Theatre Review: Xenides is a Timely Celebration of a Tragic Life
Xenides is a heartfelt commentary on the struggles faced by women all around the world
Theatre Review: In the Next Room or, The Vibrator Play Delivers a Good Time
I’ve been lucky enough to be raised in a society which has spread so much awareness of the plight of females and our right to pleasure as equals to men during sex, so why did I feel so uncomfortable seeing something so natural occurring in a fictional capacity? The writing of In the Next Room is extraordinary for this very reason: It continually challenges you as a viewer to question not only the ways in which you consciously think but the hidden reactions and accompanying internalised attitudes you did not realise you harboured.
THEATRE REVIEW: "Let me finish" is poignant, political, and necessary.
Never have I witnessed an entire audience laugh and cry at the same time, but this feat is accomplished by the astonishing cast of Let Me Finish.
Theatre Review: "Potted Potter" is gleeful magical fun for the family, but hardcore Potterheads should temper expectations
While families are going to find the magic they are looking for, hardcore Potterheads may need to temper their expectations to enjoy the ride.
