  • 372: Coming Out (Chapel Off Chapel, Melbourne Australia) (review)
    Stream podcast episodes on demand from www.biteszhq.com (mobile friendly). Coming Out – (Chapel Off Chapel, Melbourne, Australia) Showmanship, humour, pathos, anger, avert messaging and song are part of this well-meaning, but noticeably stretched offering. At its core is a gay man, Cole, Stephen Loftus, now comfortable in his own skin, although, it wasn't always that way. He talks about his school years and coming out to his parents. And then after he references a mentor, played by Scott Taylor, the mood of the production quickly changes.

    Stream podcast episodes on demand from www.biteszhq.com (mobile friendly). Prima Facie – (Fairfax Studio, Arts Centre Melbourne, Australia) Tessa Ensler, played by Sheridan Harbridge, is a successful barrister. She knows the tricks of the trade and defends her clients, many alleged sexual offenders, vehemently. She relishes the game, circling witnesses until she's ready to pounce, having lulled them into a false sense of security. She's good. Very good. Those who know her know how she operates and what's coming. The witnesses are mere lambs to the slaughter.

    Stream podcast episodes on demand from www.biteszhq.com (mobile friendly). Mary Poppins – (Her Majesty’s Theatre, Melbourne, Australia) In a word, Mary Poppins is supercalifragilistic XP alladocious. The theatrics, the staging, set design and magic introduced into this Disney and Cameron McIntosh production are sublime. I speak of everything from the doll's house that opens up to the Banks family home, to the appearance of Poppins' iconic large-scale brolly towards the end of the show.
