Dear Hamilton

Dear Hamilton

You’re not just a musical, you’re a global phenomenon. We’d be hard-pressed to find anyone – even non-theatre goers – who haven’t heard of your creator, Lin Manual Miranda, or American Founding Father, Alexander Hamilton, because of you. You’re a Grammy, Olivier, Pulitzer and Tony Prize winner….

Hamilton: Cheat Sheet

Hamilton: Cheat Sheet

Hamilton we love you, but you’re complicated. It’s not us – it’s you. At 144 words per minute, you cram in double the words of a normal musical (and average 6 words per second in your fastest song). Also – none of us grew up learning American history (we can barely remember Australian history). So…

Dear Sister Act

Dear Chicago

Dear Chicago

Your exit music please! After a six-week Sydney run, it’s almost time to hang up your jazz shoes. When you arrived, you didn’t care that it had only been six years since you were last here, or that you had a lot to live up to after Casey Donovan and Natalie Bassingthwaighte previously took the…

Dear & Juliet

Dear & Juliet

You’re gone. You took our players. You took our play. All we’re left with now is the confetti that’s still crumpled at the bottom of our bags, photos of ourselves with a giant pink ampersand, and soo many catchy songs stuck in our heads.   You were the musical we never saw coming….
