★★★☆☆ Review: The Fourth Trimester by Checkpoint Theatre

Brutally honest depiction of millennial parenthood reveals the cracks in the system. The fourth trimester refers to the 12-week period immediately after a mother gives birth, an additional three months of physical and emotional labour as both parent and child adjust to their new lives. But while just about every mother goes through this, very little of it has been shown onstage and onscreen, and … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: The Fourth Trimester by Checkpoint Theatre

★★★☆☆ Review: Inconsequential Goddess by Edith Podesta (The Studios 2022)

Weaving a tangled web of shame. Across the pantheon of Greek myths, the stories that have always stood out are the ones that deal with mortally unfair punishment from the gods, often taking the form of metamorphosis and the resulting body horror that follows. In the tale of Arachne for example, a talented but proud weaver is cursed by Athena after proving to be more … Continue reading ★★★☆☆ Review: Inconsequential Goddess by Edith Podesta (The Studios 2022)
