Mainstream Press Reviews


John Shand, 13 Nov, The Sydney Morning Herald
THE new century is still young, but here is its funniest show so far. Nothing else has doubled me up like this, a mirth vociferously shared by those around me.
…a couple of cute magic tricks, and sparsely clad females cavorted leggily in all scenes...

when it comes to describing Las Vegas (Confidential)… fascinating or educational …
James Taylor's choreography is… showgirl shape-throwing, Eurovision twizz and… bump 'n' grind…
Angela Saurine, 13 Nov, Daily Telegraph
The show boasts… impressive moments, such as a fun scene where Alex breaks into an energetic performance of The Gambler with other male cast members. It's a very different slant on the Kenny Rogers classic, complete with bare-chested cowboys.

As Katrina Retallick was ill with laryngitis, understudy Diana Holt stepped in as Francesca, the lead female role. Her strong voice was a highlight. Underbelly's Tony Nikolakopoulos is a standout as mobster Tony ``The Tool''.
