REVIEW: Cats

Tom Durkin reviews 'Cats the Musical', hot off Lloyd Weber's London West End revival. You jellicle? Delta Goodrem had to look like a pert angelic judge of mediocrity on 'The Voice' so couldn't be a cat for Perth audiences, but that's okay. We don't need her.

Review: Revealed

"As I read the background for each artist, I learnt of their lives, and the communities and country they were connected to. Some had discovered their art early in life, many at a later stage, but all were proud to honour their ancestry with their works." Janey Hakanson reviews.

Betty Blurst: Cracking Campaign #ChickenTweet

Local WA fast food outlet Chicken Treat last October launched the enormously successful #chickentweet campaign, which put layer hen Betty to the task of tapping out a five-letter English-language word from a Mac keyboard by the end of November. Kate Prendergast follows up the story, and finds herself stone-walled by the company at the end of a long pursuit for comment.

Review: The Little Prince

Upon arriving at the Spare Parts Puppet Theatre, I stood wide-eyed in the foyer, throwing nervous glances at the large, lifeless figurines staring down from above me. I took my seat at the back of the room and tried to shake my childhood fear of inanimate humanoids. Catherina Pagani reviews.

It’s About ‘Story’

Blizzard is slightly reducing the sexual-objectification of its female characters, even if their official reasons for doing so are weak. The benefit being that the euphemism of characterisation is easier for some to digest. Same end, different method, easier execution. Words by Kacper Szodza.

Pelican Talks with PROSH

Pelican caught up with the PROSH team before the 85th launch of the satirical mag this Wednesday at 4:20am, talking history, change, memes and Ibis. We can't say we understand that last one though.

Review: Pindorama

"The show is one of the strangest dance pieces I have ever seen, but one I haven’t stopped talking about since. It’s intriguing, uncomfortable and certainly different from traditional notions of dance." Melissa Scott reviews PIAF performance Pindorama, directed and choreographed by Brazilian dancer Lia Rodrigues.
