"Cosi" by Heidelberg Theatre Company

I'm a big fan of this theatre company, but, this production was probably the least enjoyable I've ever seen. All casts were superb, though. 

The thing is, the whole storyline was too unbelievable and the plot itself was too messy. 

I'm looking forward to the next one.

A good play by Emily Sheehan at this lovely theatre place in St Kilda. 

A fascinating subject played well by the cast. I wish the story could delve much deeper into the world of politics and perceptions.

Picnic at Hanging Rock - 1812 Theatre

It's a very charming theatre in Upper Ferntree Gully, 50 min drive southeast from Melbourne. 

It must've been a challenging process putting this production on a small stage. 

I'm not sure if you can follow the story line if you're not familiar with the novel or the film. 

All cast are wonderful, though.

Garage Girls at La Mama

Live stream from the theatre this evening. 

A great production based on a book A Spanner in the works: The extraordinary story of Alice Anderson by Loretta Smith. Never heard of Alice Anderson before. 

Extraordinary cast from Three Birds Theatre and The Shift Theatre, particularly Madelaine Nunn, a main character. 

Thank you so much, I really enjoyed it. It clearly shows the strength of theatre productions in Melbourne.
