Everything was alright with the world (despite wearing masks), as we sat back and listened to the mellifluous tones of Anthony Warlow doing what he does best – sing show songs.

When One Door Closes is a feel-good cabaret - written, directed, and performed by Courtney Hough - that played in Chemistry at the Girls School. A beautifully performed look at dating, the experiences of the last two years and modern life, it features Courtney’s outstanding singing and a smattering of clever comedy.

Known for his challenging and controversial works, Edward Albee’s widely acclaimed Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, winner of a 1963 Tony Award,  first challenged audiences when it arrived on Broadway in 1962 and has been reinterpreted by director Margaret Harvey, through a new and unique Australian lens. Albee was a deeply political writer who commented that he liked plays to be “useful, not merely decorative”.

Out of lockdown, back on the performing circuit, the feisty ginger-headed Geraldine Quinn begins her musical cabaret show paying homage to the wonderful “red headed” women who caught her imagination when growing up, such as Agnes Moorehead, Vivienne Westwood and Carol Burnett. Her new show Broad has been lurking about; having been put on hold for the obvious reasons yet again, it has finally hit the boards to an applauding audience.
