Review: SUB II – The Art of Exploitation by Underground Theatre

A chance to hear from the misunderstood ranks of society and learn a little more about subcultures.  We’re going to start this review with a disclaimer: we have just about zero experience interacting with any of the subcultures mentioned in SUB II. A punk, metalhead or skinhead is about the furthest thing from our usual social circles, and it’s completely refreshing to see these subcultures take the … Continue reading Review: SUB II – The Art of Exploitation by Underground Theatre

Playing to a theatre full of pre-schoolers … Continue reading Review: The Nightingale by SRT’s The Little Company

So it makes complete sense that one of its winners, first time competition participant Christopher Chee, would make full use of the setting for inspiration for his play The Good Farmer.  The Good Farmer’s entire plot revolves around the competition’s first prompt, where participants were tasked to open … Continue reading Review: The Good Farmer by Theatreworks
