Beauty and the Beast, the Noise11 Review Melbourne 29 June 2024

by Paul Cashmere

The new Australian production of Beauty and the Beast is gobsmackingly good. This new version of the show, based on the 2022 UK production, takes the technology available in theatres to a whole new level. But of course, without a strong story, great music, the colourful costumes, humour and an outstanding cast, it wouldn’t fly. Beauty and the Beast gets the highest tick for every category.

by Paul Cashmere

The Beatles played six concerts in Melbourne on that one and only Australian tour of 1964, two shows each on the 15, 16 and 17th of June. The next time Paul was in Melbourne was for two Wings concerts on 13 and 14 November, 1975. There were two MCG concerts on 9 and 10 March, 1993, and two AAMI Park shows on 6 and 7 December, 2017. 21 October, 2023 at Marvel Stadium was special. It was the 13th and most likely the last time Sir Paul McCartney will ever perform in Melbourne, Australia.

Bluesfest Melbourne Day Two was a rollercoaster ride. There was so much great music packed into one day that it was impossible to see it all. I expected and received absolute stunning performances from blues legend Buddy Guy and Americana royalty Lucinda Williams and Steve Earle but it’s the least expected that makes you walk away wanting more.
