Yeah, you can watch it at home on SBS, but there’s nothing like being among a (hopefully) large partisan crowd.

Correction: The Slam at the Front tonight will be hosted by Miranda Lello and Ryan Schipper.

Come along and enjoy round 2 of Captain of the Rant!

The Front has a poetry slam tonight apparently featuring the return of The Captain of The Rant from the UK.

Venetian Twins performs 4 times over the weekend – Tonight and tomorrow at 8pm, plus 2pm matinees Saturday and Sunday. A musical-comedy-commedia-farce-swashbuckle-slapstick-opera-a-thon that critics have called ” an evening where you can just relax and laugh your head off”, and “a unique mix of Commedia, ocker humour, and farce which I found totally delightful”. Also runs next week Weds-Sat.
