Directors: Jessica Latowicki and Dan Canham. Reviewer: Jack Trott The Public Reviews Rating:   Handed popcorn as you walk into the intimate theatre space and greeted by Jessica Latowicki with a warm smile, standing atop a podium, the audience is engaged from the very outset of We Hope That You Are Happy .

Music: Borut Krizisnik, Masaya Takashino, Street Furniture, Luke Harney Director: Sharon Watson Reviewer: Tiffany Shepherd The Public Reviews Rating: Contemporary Dance doesn’t have the best record for being a light night at the theatre, with a reputation for being complex, long, and frankly, very confusing.
