Last night was the opening night of Holland Street Productions latest’s show - Gutenberg the Musical!, and as my partner and I stepped into the Hellenic Centre of WA on Stirling Street in Perth, we eagerly awaited what the local independent theatre group might have in store for us.
The night kicked off nicely with pre show drinks available from the bar amidst chatter and a great vibe coming from the musical patrons.
Gutenberg the Musical! revolves around the two main characters Doug and Bud, who are trying to make it big on Broadway with their new musical about the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg.
Tartuffe by Black Swan State Theatre Company

"The more things change, the more they stay the same" is a favourite cliche of our times, but never has it been more true than in Black Swan State Theatre Company and Queensland Theatre Company's production of Tartuffe – the Hypocrite.
Originally written by Molière in the second half of the 17th century, it has been updated by Justin Fleming into modern day Australian and honestly feels as if it could have been written yesterday.

Entering the theatre for The Blue Room’s production of [PORTO] felt more like walking into a cosy laneway bar than a play.
I was immediately drawn in by the set – the unassuming bar counter next to a stage with a microphone, and the funky little couch in the corner.
When [], the omniscient, fourth wall-breaking narrator (played by Joe Lui) stepped up to the mic in his ostentatious red outfit, I knew this was going to be an intriguing show.

Equity – the Official Selection from the Sundance Film Festival 2016 and Tribeca Film Festival 2016 is now showing at Luna Palace Cinemas in Perth.
The movie offers a window into the world of IPOs, investment bankers and venture capitalists – a fast paced glimpse into the lives of individuals driven by the quest for money.
What makes this story unique compared to other movies about Wall Street, is its focus on the women of Wall Street. Written, filmed and financed by an all female team, the women unbare their stories.
