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: Great Expectations // Villanova Players

  Written by Jake Goodall Set in the early 1800s, welcome to one of Dickens' most famous novels brought to life by Villanova Players at the Ron Hurley Theatre. This classic tale had audience laughing with traditional quips and jokes left right and centre, perfect for the older demographic to relive their youth.  Great Expectations follows the childhood and young adult years of Pip, a blacksmith's apprentice in a country village. He suddenly comes into a large fortune (his great expectations) from a mysterious benefactor and moves to London where he enters high society. Written by Charles Dickens and adapted for the stage by Janys Chambers, this is a story full of amazing characters, from a poor rural village to the heights of London society and all places in between.

This multi layered set allowed for great depth and adaptability for the production to showcase differen...

Review: Jersey Boys // QPAC & Prospero Arts

 ​   Before there was Beggin' by MÃ¥neskin and Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You by Andy Williams, there was Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, which is the source for the hit Jukebox Musical: Jersey Boys! Produced by QPAC and Prospero Arts, Jersey Boys  is the inspiring rags-to-riches tale of The Four Seasons. When Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito, and Nick Massi met, they were just four New Jersey teens singing together under street lamps, scraping for gigs and money in their working-class neighborhood. As the quartet rises to international stardom, they celebrate the highs and endure the lows that go hand-in-hand with fame. Each member of the group takes a turn narrating events, illustrating how a ragtag group of guys from New Jersey -- and their decades-long friendships -- became music history. Directed by Martin Croft, this semi staged concert was stunning. Croft's ingenious talent shines through this this stellar production; the design and blocking was simple a...
