Review (Blue Curtains Brisbane): The Tragic Tale of Dr Faustus

An attempt at poetic introduction seems appropriate for a work such as Sepulchre Serenade’s The Tragic Tale of Dr Faustus, which is so richly layered in mullti artistry.

Review (Catherine Lawrence): PUSH

PUSH lives up to the promotion of being ‘Screech Arts at their boldest [… and is] frank, funny, and fearless.’ PUSH is a clever, insightful, and important piece of theatre. The show closes with Bradley’s challenge to the audience: ‘when life holds us back, we push […] The question is, will you push with us too?’ I hope that Screech Arts find future opportunities to bring this work to a wider audience, and to attract future advocates and supporters—whether on a more conventional inner-city stage, or back in the fabulous Paint Factory Anywhere Festival Hub.

Review (Catherine Lawrence): 10 Years

As a celebration of the first ten or so years of the musical Muses Trio journey, the ’10 Years’ concert and collection features music that is composed by women—and is frequently written specifically for/commissioned by the Muses Trio.
