Augustine United Church
Cock
★★★★☆ Potent
Kitty Milk Theatre’s debut, Cock, at the Studio of Augustine United Church for four performances only, is an auspicious start which only narrowly misses perfection.
Who’s The Fairest of Them All?
★★★☆☆ Darkly pointed
Who’s The Fairest of Them All?, written & directed by Holly Wagner at Erstwhile Media’s One Dramatic Night, retells Snow White, while questioning who the true villain of the story is.
The Yeomen Of The Guard
★★★☆☆ Assured
Cat-Like Tread return to Paradise in Augustines with an assured and beautifully directed production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Yeomen of the Guard for the final week of the fringe.
Rock of Ages
★★★★★ Phenomenal
Bare Productions continue their streak of high-calibre musicals with a Rock of Ages that roars onto the Sanctuary stage at Paradises at Augustines with an all-star company.
Waiting for Wonka
★★★☆☆ Overstretched
Half Trick’s Waiting for Wonka at Augustine Church has plenty of ideas, excellent staging and some genuinely terrific performances, but never quite convinces in the way it threatens to.
Little Shop of Horrors
★★★★☆ Exuberant performances
Little Shop of Horrors, by Room 29 at Augustine United Church, is a beautifully sung production that is high on storytelling, even if some of the visual elements are less convincing.
Living With the Dead
★★★☆☆ Thoughtful
Not So Nice! Theatre Company’s latest offering, Living With the Dead by Cosette Bolt at the Augustine United Church, confronts the reality of death in its many forms, reflecting on its sameness.
Little Red Robin Hood
★★★☆☆ Clever
Little Red Robin Hood from Happy Sad Productions is a clever mash-up of Little Red Riding Hood, Robin Hood, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, with elements of other pantos thrown in for good measure.
End of the Line
★★★☆☆ Light-hearted
Theatre Paradok make a whimsical exploration of impending nuclear disaster in End of the Line, at the Augustine United Church on George IV Bridge until Monday 18 November.
The Pirates of Penzance
★★★☆☆ Piratical
