When Squabbalogic burst onto the Sydney theatre scene in 2008, it was exactly everything the city needed: an independent company dedicated to boutique musical theatre: the weird and wonderful, the challenging work often neglected by commercial theatre.
And they started with Reefer Madness. From there, it’s been a cavalcade of the eccentric, the eclectic, the beautiful. The best of small-scale musical theatre. Meta-musical [title of show] (it scored an encore season). William Finn’s clever, autobiographical A New Brain. The deceptively heartwrenching Ordinary Days. The laugh-out-loud Forbidden Broadway.
We haven’t seen Squabbalogic since January 2012’s Ordinary Days, and in their absence, they have been busy developing a three-show 2013 season – their first official season. It’s ambitious, it’s uncompromising, it’s contemporary, and it’s everything a musical theatre fan could want.
This is a bold season making strong, compelling programming choices with a deft and talented creative team at the helm. Sydney, this is your musical theatre wake-up call. Don’t miss it.
