REVIEW: Guest Reviewer Kym Vaitiekus Shares His Thoughts On JULIA
Justine Clarke is astounding as the PM 570 in JULIA. Writer, Johanna Murray- Smith has eloquently constructed a superb Play that explores Gillard’s journey as the first female Prime Minister in the heavily misogynistic Australian political environment.

Bangarra Dance Theatre is like no other performing arts company on this tiny blue pebble in the sky.
