Last night i went with a group of friends to see WAAPA's Cabaret performed by the 3rd Year Musical Theatre students and i thought it was fantastic!!

Sure i went in there having been in the show twice (once at MPAC in 2000ish and again at Kwinana 2008) so of course i had certain expectations and prejudices, however they were bloody great and I honestly couldn't say that "ours" was "better" (as one always _hopes_ to think when seeing another version of a show you've already done) Eye-wink

'Bargain Burials' is a zany, slightly risqué, black comedy by the prolific local playwright, Johnny Grim. A Lad in Sane Productions and the Phoenix Theatre Inc are both pleased to present this play’s debut. The season is running at the Phoenix Theatre in Memorial Hall, at the corner of Carrington Street and Rockingham Road, Hamilton Hill nightly at 8.00 pm until 28th March, with Sunday matinees at 3.00 pm one on the 21st and the other the 28th March.

Musicals have just never been my bag – the words of Noel
Coward always swirl around my brain – “Don’t put your daughter on the stage Mrs
Worthington!” Sure, I love LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS and PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE
DESERT, but I take great pride in NEVER having seen SOUND OF MUSIC, although I
did buy the album for my mum. But back to Noel Coward … sort of. Mr John-Michael Swinbank had kindly invited a friend of mine to the
opening night of OKLAHOMA,
at His Majesty’s Theatre and I tagged along as her Handbag (Veronica’s, not JM’s!).

‘Solo Spot’ is presented by the Blue Room in Northbridge, as part of their ‘21 Summer Nights’ programme. This gives a chance for actors and writers to try out one of their 20-minute works. Last night’s show, to be repeated on Friday 19th March at 8.00, had five very different individual pieces.

            ‘An Incan Love Story’ written and performed by Zalia Joi, starts with a carefree girl thinking of her lovers and the sexual side of their relationships. Then one day she meets an old Peruvian man who tells her the true meaning of love.
A sensitive piece, where yet again with her 2 to 3 octave singing and her deep whispering voice, Zalia captures the audience.

Catch 22
By Joseph Heller
Directed by Gregory Rowbotham
Presented by Brisbane Arts Theatre
Petrie Terrace, Brisbane

Never have characters been as wickedly hilarious and eccentric as those in Catch 22. The brilliant and timeless humour by Joseph Heller allows the audience to poke fun at the madness of war, while attempting to remind them of its serious side.
