In Dame Edna: Back with a Vengeance!, creator/performer Barry Humphries, the world- class lively transvestite and master comedian pours out brilliant quips. He's a great actor in a great role, and it's all laugh after laugh with amazing timing. His audience interaction, which is a good part of the show, is as good as it gets, and far superior to most comedians I have seen - and and I've only seen 2026 of them. It's insightful, good natured, and hilarious. And this time he's got Wayne Barker on the piano and four gorgeous performers to dance, sing and assist him as he brings audience members onto the stage.
Dan Scheivert's set and Jane Cox's lighting are quite good. Will Goodwin and Stephen Adnitt's ridiculous, fantastical costumes take the show to another dimension. Go, Possums, enjoy, it'll keep you smiling for days.
