Now, they’re bringing the remarkable production back for … Continue reading Preview: Four Horse Road 四马路 2020 by The Theatre Practice

Review: The Rishi and Sharul Show 2

★★★★☆ (Performance attended 14/2/20) 2 is better than one as comedy couple Rishi Budhrani and Sharul Channa join forces in a one-night only Valentine’s special. “How do you keep the magic alive?” an audience member asks comedians and married couple Rishi Budhrani and Sharul Channa during The Rishi and Sharul Show 2.

Review: The Importance of Being Earnest (2020) by W!ld Rice

★★★★☆ (Performance attended 8/2/20) Stellar revival of W!ld Rice’s acclaimed all-male version of Oscar Wilde’s magnum opus. Concerning itself with an exaggerated version of Victorian high society, where ‘style, not sincerity, is the vital thing’, The Importance of Being Earnest remains one of the world’s most beloved comedies, surrounding the misplaced importance over one’s name and background, characters are exaggerated stereotypes, find themselves in absurd … Continue reading Review: The Importance of Being Earnest (2020) by W!ld Rice
