    What ‘Beetlejuice The Musical’ lacks in astounding, memorable musical numbers, it more than makes up for in many other departments – costuming, props, and fantastic acting performances make the production a thrilling, camp night out. Eddie Perfect (music and lyrics) steps into the demonic titular role here, and proves a total dream. His performance is totally deranged in the best way possible. . . Somehow managing to be chaotic, endearing, disturbing, perverted and charming all in one hit.

    ‘Les Misérables’ is already a production of epic proportions. In an arena, this show is simply unstoppable. From the iconic, instantly recognisable Cosette illustration to the grand musical numbers, ‘Les Misérables’ has held strong in the zeitgeist since its beginnings on the stage. Its timeless messaging continues to ring true across the world, and there are few ways to really grasp this like filling an arena with adoring ‘Miz’ fans.

    ‘Hadestown’ is a powerful, emotionally evocative piece of musical theatre beating with a passionate heart and a gentle soul. The Anaïs Mitchell musical blends Greek mythology with a soulful, folky, jazzy soundtrack, as it tells the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. There’s so much love in this show – it feels like a warm hug from a cast and crew of people who truly, thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the art of performance. The music here is unlike anything this reviewer has heard in this context. . .

    In ‘Box-Headed Manbaby’, comedian Daniel Connell continues his tradition of delivering relaxing, relatable stand-up in its purest form. With such a colourful offering at our disposal for this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival, there’s so much to see and so many stories to hear. The land of comedy has evolved, now presented in myriad perspectives across art forms. It’s so much fun to watch the many ways in which people present humour on the stage. All that said. . .
