Ghostlight Theatre’s Queensland premiere production of Evil Dead: The Musical is a cult hit and has already sold out its full production run! That is probably because the team that brought you Exorcist: The Musical, directors, Yasmin Elahi and Benjamin Oxley, prove that they don’t shy away from challenging and entertaining musical productions. Plus their ability to choose outstanding cast members is on full display in this wacky homage to B-grade Drive-In Horror flicks and quirky musical styles.

Kenneth Lonergan’s This is Our Youth is a well-known coming of age play, set in New York’s Upper East Side at the beginning of the Reagan era. Set over 48 hours it tells of three lost souls - ,Warren Straub a 19-year-old who has stolen $15 thousand dollars from his business tycoon father, Dennis, his drug dealer friend, and Warren’s love interest, Jessica. This incarnation is presented by Marked Studios, for a very short production as part of Subilicious for Fringe World.

This is the Australian (an International) premiere of White Sun. This one-person show is playing for a short season as part of the Blue Room Theatre’s Summer Season. 

A lone actor, Will Dickie, moves strangely on the stage, continually moving throughout the sixty-minute play. He explains that like David Garrick who pioneered a new style of acting, he comes from Hampton and intends to do the same - with a pioneering acting style.

While you may not recognise Milo Hartill’s name, you will probably recognise her face or figure. Star of a hugely popular Google Commercial, underwear model and actress, this young woman from Perth has acting performances with Melbourne Theatre Company and at Sydney Opera House to her credit.
