Request a Reviewer

After all, reviews are what we are all about, so of course we want to hear from you if you have a show you’d like us to consider for review. You can read about the types of reviews we complete here or scroll to the bottom of the page to request a reviewer!

Where Do We Review?

The majority of our coverage is in South East Queensland. We are always trying to expand that area, so get in touch and tell us about your show, and if we have someone in the area, we’ll see if they can make it.

What Do We Review?

Absolutely anything that is considered art (yes even subjectively!), We will come to your musicals, plays, circus, dance concerts, fringe performances, art galleries and everything in between!

We will also dip our toe into theatre related books and even the occasional film. Put simply, if you think you have something that we might be interested in, just tell us about it. We will always consider every invite we receive.

How Do We Decide What Gets Reviewed?

It is purely schedule based if a reviewer is available to attend your show, they will attend! If they can't attend feel free to send through a press release or interview request so we can provide some coverage on your show!

How Far In Advance Should We Contact You?

It’s never too early to invite us. Whilst most of our team probably only plan a few weeks ahead, some will plan a few months if a show takes their interest. We will also take review requests for shows happening in the next week or two, but we can’t often fill such late requests, it really depends if a reviewer finds they have some spare time and the show takes their interest. Never be afraid to ask, we will always try for you.

Our Show is Ready, We Want to Invite You, What do we do?:

Send an email to dramadispatch@gmail.com with the show name, producer, location, available dates and times! We will then contact you if a reviewer is available to attend, from there you make 2 tickets available for our reviewers to attend and then sit back and relax! It's that easy!

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).

Article: The Empire Young Artist showcase original production

The Empire’s youngest artists have kicked off rehearsals for their original production, Our Egg Named Larry to be performed from July 12-13. Now in its 14th year, the audition-based elite performance program IMPACT sees a Junior Ensemble cast of eight aged 13-14, dive into the funny, heartwarming and at times ridiculous story of a group of students who are assigned to a project to keep a fragile egg named Larry in one piece. An original theatre piece, Our Egg named Larry was written by The Empire Youth Arts Lead Grace Sankey and co-writer Sheldon Mcloughlin, with ensemble members to contribute to the script writing process, drawing on discoveries they make about their own characters as rehearsals continue. “This year’s Junior Ensemble has a mixture of experience levels with some members who have done this program before and some who will be going on stage for the very first time,” Miss Sankey said. “I am so grateful to be in the rehearsal room with these amazing young people, creating ...

Review: Scenes From a Yellow Perril - The Reaction Theory & Queensland Theatre Door 3

Written by Grace Wilson The best kind of theatre is theatre that makes people question, reflect and consider how uncomfortable questions encourage people to act and change. There are not many theatre pieces out there that can make an audience consider whether to laugh or cringe, smile or grimace. However, The Reaction Theory’s ‘Scenes From a Yellow Peril’, as a part of Queensland Theatre’s Door 3 program, masterfully manipulates the uncomfortable with the comedic, the angry with the heartfelt, and asks the audience if uncomfortable questions are worth the discoveries that come with them. ‘Scenes From A Yellow Peril’ by Chinese-New Zealand writer and poet, Nathan Joe, can truly be described as poetry on stage, a turbulent experience of communication and heightened emotions. The audience is exposed to complexities and challenges of BIPOC communities across the world in a way that does not fit the traditional theatre mould. There is no way to predict what Joe writes next; each scene chops...
