Musical Theatre: Dream Lover – The Bobby Darin Musical
The music of Bobby Darin was not of my time and in fact it was only a few months ago when I asked, “Who’s Bobby Darin?” … but now I’m so itching to see the new musical that’s about to hit Sydney. I typed in “Bobby Darin” in You Tube and it came up with…
Singin’ In The Rain at the Sydney Lyric Theatre

Theatre :: Bad Jews – what happens when you put 3 cousins in a small space
Bad Jews, now showing at the Seymour Theatre in Chippendale, is one of those plays that held my attention throughout the entire one act, 100 minutes performance. With brilliant acting, Bad Jews is an intense play set in a cramped Manhattan apartment centring on a Jewish family and the tensions that arise where there are differences…
