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!

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...

‘Checked Out’ // Inscape Assembly

  Welcome to Greenmart, where the Karens run wild, wannabe creatives line the shelves, and the rule of not falling in love with your co-workers is undeniably broken! ‘Checked Out’ is a fresh musical presented by Inscape Assembly that offers a glimpse into the inner lives of several young employees navigating the challenges of both the modern retail landscape and the individuals unfortunate enough to be caught up in it. From Alice, the new kid on the block, to Jet, who has weathered it all, from the lovestruck Harry to the perennially lost Lara,”Checked Out is a comedic musical that resonates with anyone who’s toiled in customer service and nearly lost their sanity in the process. Caleb Bartlett’s lighting design was simple yet effective, employing basic backlighting and front spotlights. While the lighting scheme remained fairly straightforward, it did succeed at times in setting the scene’s mood and enhancing the musical numbers. Tess Matthews’ sound direction deserves commendatio...
