    High on hairspray and caked with Max Factor, Tyler Coppin's LyreBird is a tour de force - a visually extravagant and outrageously comic portrayal of an extraordinary Australian and a giant of world theatre, Sir Robert Helpmann. Set in a theatre dressing room at intermission during the ballet Don Quixote, the dilapidated thespian rummages through the highs and lows of an extraordinary life that began on a sheep ranch in outback South Australia before climaxing on the stages of Broadway and London.

          Just saw this one man play about an overly ostentatious, unapologetic flamboyant queen telling his life story in rich bitchiness! Great one liners and perfectly over-acted to bring this character (and... Expand
