Article: Some Girl(s) // Reverie Theatre Company

Join Guy on his cross-country trip to visit ex-girlfriends as Reverie Theatre Company presents "Some Girl(s)," a black comedy penned by the acclaimed playwright Neil LaBute.

The production will take place at Javeenbah Theatre from Thursday, 18 April – Saturday 20 April.

"Some Girl(s)" follows the journey of a successful writer on the eve of his wedding, who embarks on a cross-country trip to seek closure with his ex-lovers. Set against the backdrop of four hotel rooms, the play explores themes of love, regret, and the complexities of human relationships.

The first stop on his tour is his now-married, high school sweetheart Sam (Cassie Baan); his second meeting is with sexually free-spirited Tyler (Candice Jean); his third with married college professor Lindsay (Corinne Le Claire), with whom he had an affair; and his final stop is to visit “the one that got away”, Bobbi (Sophie Lawson).

Directed by Sophie Lawson and Candice Jean, Some Girl(s) is an astute and provocative dramedy about the perils of relationships and messy breakups in particular. 

“The show follows four meetings, with four different girls in four different cities. It’s driven by a series of really strong performances,” Ms Jean said.

“As the protagonist navigates through his past, audiences will be taken on the journey with him. It’s a journey filled with laughter, heartache, and hopefully a bit of self-discovery.

“This is an extremely limited run with four shows over one weekend only, so don’t miss it!” Ms Jean said.

Review: Freshblood Festival - Vena Cava

Written By Thor Morrison Upcoming creatives need a place to experiment, to prosper, to explore, and even to sometimes miss the mark. It is essential that spaces that allow this to happen exist, especially in a world obsessed with perfectionism. The Freshblood Festival is an annual event run by QUT Student Theatre Company Vena Cava, focused on young writers and performers, and it does just that. It provides a space for the new and upcoming creatives of Brisbane and surrounds to experiment, have fun, and create really exciting performances. Held at BackDock Arts in Fortitude Valley, and running over two consecutive weekends, it is a massive endeavour Vena Cava have given themselves. 14 independent shows, two play readings, and 8 music acts ensure that Freshblood has something for everyone to enjoy, and shows the variety and scale of the Festival itself. Drama Dispatch was able to attend most of the second weekend, seeing a total of seven shows and a play reading, and was greatly impresse...

‘Jane Eyre’ // shake & stir theatre co and HOTA

  Australian based theatre company shake & stir has presented a spine-chilling rendition of Charlotte Bronte’s feminist classic, ‘Jane Eyre’. This gothic tale of Bronte’s follows Jane Eyre as she searches for love, family and a sense of belonging. Following a childhood spent suffering at the hands of her cruel Aunt, Jane finds employment at Thornfield Hall, the impressive yet mysterious home of Edward Rochester. As Jane and Rochester become inexplicably drawn to each other, the dark secrets locked within the walls of Thornfield start to unravel, forcing Jane on a heart-wrenching journey toward truth and freedom. Adapted from Bronte’s 1847 classic, Nelle Lee and Nick Skubij have created a beautifully gothic production that is reminiscent of the 1800s dracula-esque era. Lee & Skubij have brought the words off the page in this show, beautifully integrating Bronte’s writing into the production itself. Complimenting the wonderful adaption is music composition by Aria Award Winne...
