The sequel to the much loved Aussie legendary movie Red Dog is showing in cinemas across Australia.

I was lucky enough to catch Red Dog True Blue with some friends at the outdoor Community cinemas at Burswood Parklands.

A heartwarming tale that will appeal to dog lovers, it follows the story of a young boy Mick (Levi Miller) staying with his grandfather up in his cattle station in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

The story switches between past and present - narrated by Mike as a grown man, recounting his time spent with his grandfather as a young boy.

What can a small, dedicated group of aerial acrobats do with only 30 metres of rope suspended in the air?

…A whole lot, and more - as we discovered while watching a stunning performance of By a Thread by the One Fell Swoop Circus group at the Fringe World Festival in Perth.

Making their debut in Perth, the circus artists packed their bags and took a road trip to get here from Melbourne. It has also turned out to be quite an adventure for audiences in Perth who have been lucky enough to watch these amazing aerialists.

Having thoroughly enjoyed Holland St Productions Gutenberg! The Musical in late 2016, my partner and I were looking forward to their Fringe World performance of Dr. Felicity Rickshaw's Celebrity Sex Party, at the Flaming Locomotive in the State Theatre Centre.

Upon entering the room, we were greeted by the sight of Dr Felicity Rickshaw hard at work on her laptop, no doubt in the midst of composing another erotic epic.

Up for Love the French romantic comedy has opened at Luna Palace cinemas. It’s a boy meets girl love story with a rather unique twist!

The story unfolds with the main character Diane (Virginie Efira) a successful lawyer and partner at her own firm with business partner Bruno, who she also happens to be separated from in her failed marriage.

By chance encounter, she meets Alexandre (Jean Dujardin) – who is charming, rich and successful, however, there is only one slight catch.

Acclaimed British film director Ken Loach (of Jimmy’s Hall, The Angels’ Share, The Wind That Shakes the Barley) and writer Paul Laverty have struck a chord as audiences around the world have resonated strongly with the movie in its fight for the underdog.

The story revolves around the main character Daniel Blake, a carpenter forced to stop work due to a heart condition, who finds himself thrown into the world of the social services system to seek assistance.
