Stage Door Podcast

We discuss the new Australian musical Ladies in Black (with a score by Tim Finn), just in time for it’s return to the stage in a new tour with most of its wonderful original cast. Then we’re joined by the hilarious Jocelyn … Continued

We’re back – again! We saw the new Australian show GEORGY GIRL- THE SEEKERS MUSICAL, which we found a surprisingly pleasant experience! Tyson saw some Melbourne Theatre Company plays, LUNGS by Duncan MacMillan and THE DISTANCE by Deborah Bruce, the latter featuring two excellent performances … Continued
