DESCRIPTION:MUSIC AND LYRICS BY MAX MARTIN AND FRIENDS What if Romeo’s ending\, was Juliet’s beginning? Find out how Juliet’s story gets turned on its head in the best possible way when WAAPA brings the international smash-hit musical & Juliet to the Regal Theatre this September. \nFun\, flashy and full of heart\, this coming-of-age jukebox musical cleverly reimagines Shakespeare’s classic tragedy as an empowering journey of female self-discovery. This is a Juliet who ditches her famous ending for a fresh beginning and a second chance at life and love – her way. \nA hilarious\, inspiring and poignant script by the Emmy-winning writer of Schitt’s Creek\, David West Read\, gets amped up by the world’s most loved pop anthems from the late 90s and 2000s\, all from the songbook of Grammy-winning Swedish powerhouse songwriter/producer\, Max Martin.  \nMade famous by the likes of Britney Spears\, The Backstreet Boys\, Katy Perry and more\, the playlist of 30 sing-a-long-able bangers includes chart-toppers such as Since U Been Gone\, Roar\, Baby One More Time\, Larger Than Life\, That’s The Way It Is\, and Can’t Stop the Feeling!  \n& Juliet runs from Friday 11 to Thursday 17 September for six performances only. The cast of triple-threat 3rd Year Musical Theatre students will be accompanied by an orchestra of WAAPA Music students\, with Production and Design students providing the sets\, costumes\, lighting\, sound and backstage crew. Visiting UK guest director Alastair Knights helms the show\, with choreography by Jodie Bickle and music direction by Vanitha Hart.  \nWith its high-energy pop score\, dynamic choreography\, and empowering storyline\, this is a musical guaranteed to have you singing and dancing in your seat. \nA joyous celebration of self-discovery and second chances\, & Juliet proves there’s life after Romeo … the only thing tragic would be missing it! \nPERFORMANCE INFORMATION: & JULIET Fri 11 – Thu 17 September\, 2026 at 7.30pm\, matinee Sat 12 September at 2.00pm \nRegal Theatre\, 474 Hay St\, Subiaco Music and lyrics by Max Martin and friends\, Book by David West ReadDirected by Alastair Knights\, Musical Direction by Vanitha Hart\, Choreographed by Jodie BicklePerformed by WAAPA 3rd Year Musical Theatre and Music students Tickets: $89 Full / $84 Concession / $82 WAAPA Friends / $55 Restricted View (booking fees apply) BOOK NOW through the Regal Theatre: Tel (08) 9381 9943 or online at regaltheatre.com.au \nBookings through the Regal Theatre \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1280633117475373/?event_time_id=1280633124142039

SUMMARY:Bury Tomorrow - Australia 2026 with Gideon (US) & Headwreck – Perth 18+
DESCRIPTION:Destroy All Lines Presents \nBury TomorrowAustralian Tour with special guests Gideon (US)\, Headwreck+ Heists \nFriday 11th September Magnet House\, Perth 18+Doors 7pm \nTickets On Sale Now:https://daltours.cc/26BUR-pert \nBritish metalcore titans Bury Tomorrow will return to Australia this September in support of their latest album Will You Haunt Me\, With That Same Patience. The band will headline shows across the country with support from Alabama thrashers\,Gideon\, and today announce the addition of Brisbane nu-metal provocateurs Headwreck. \nFor Bury Tomorrow\, the last two years have been defined by transformation. From the disorientation of line-up changes and COVID-inspired roadblocks\, to the arrival of guitarist Ed Hartwell and keyboardist/vocalist Tom Prendergast\, the band have rebuilt themselves from the inside out. Their 2023 record The Seventh Sun marked the beginning of their rebirth\, but their newest chapter\, Will You Haunt Me\, With That Same Patience\, is where everything truly came together. Crafted more intimately and intricately than ever before by internalising every aspect of the writing process\, with Carl Bown (Sleep Token\, Bullet For My Valentine\, While She Sleeps) manning production duties for the first time\, the result is a profoundly personal\, extraordinarily expansive and punishingly grand display of cathartic craftsmanship. \nTo have allowed themselves the time and space to reach this point of comfort and confidence now feels like a starting point for everything that the band will do in the future. Expanding their empire in all corners of the world and delivering their biggest statement of intent to date is the beginning of a whole new chapter in the story of one of the most devastating and dedicated assets to British heavy music. \nJoining them in Australia is Gideon\, known for blending metalcore with no-frills heaviness and their signature southern groove\, fuelling them since 2008. Gideon have earned a reputation for their intense live shows\, relentless touring ethic and thunderous sound. Over the years\, Gideon has evolved from small-town beginnings into one of the most respected names in heavy music. Their records reflect the reality of life on the road and the lessons learned along the way – hard work\, resilience\, and a commitment to doing things their own way. Their last trip to Australia saw them supporting Void Of Vision in February 2025\, delivering a set that left fans hungry for their return. \nCatch two of metal’s most captivating forces live in action next September. Tickets available Friday 14th November at 11am local time via Destroy All Lines

SUMMARY:Dice // Perth // The Altitude Tour // Astor Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Destroy All Lines\, Tone City Records\, Triple J & Billions Presents \nDiceThe Altitude TourWith Special Guests Mid Drift and Ray and Paul (USA) \nFriday 11 SeptemberAstor Theatre\, PerthDoors 7:00pm \n𝐓𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐎𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐰➟ daltours.cc/26DCE-pert \nHot on the heels of the announcement of DICE’s second album\, I Thought The Altitude Would Make It Worth The View\, today the four-piece from Perth announce an extensive national tour in support of the album. \nStarting in Adelaide in August\, the tour then makes its way around the country\, taking in both capital cities and regional stops\, finishing up in the band’s hometown in September. \nIt’s been said that young people don’t know how to communicate anymore. DICE exists to respond to that idea. Comprising of Ben Hodge\, Tom King\, Regan Beazley\, and Sam Barrett-Lennard\, the Perth-based four-piece makes music for authentic connection. For movement\, for feeling\, and for being present. These are songs that push you to run outside and be a kid again\, to fall in love\, dance in your kitchen\, take a spontaneous trip with mates\, jump into a river\, or lie in the grass doing nothing at all. This mission has resonated far beyond their Western Australian roots. Since the 2024 release of their ARIA-charting debut album Midnight Zoo\, DICE has transformed from local indie-rock darlings into a high-velocity global export. Following the critical acclaim of their debut\, the band spent 2025 cementing their status as a premier live act and evolving their sound with the release of the WINGS EP. \nTheir massive 2025 World Tour saw the group move into larger venues\, turning the pressures of early adulthood into bright\, liberating anthems for sold-out crowds in London\, New York\, Toronto\, Bristol\, Denver\, Amsterdam\, and Sydney. Having maintained a position on triple j’s Most Played Artists list for three consecutive years\, DICE continues to build momentum with an unwavering life’s too short philosophy. Following the success of ‘Chasing Hearts’\, ‘Alter Ego’\, and the euphoric ‘Hourglass’\, the band has spent the last year recalibrating their sonic DNA. \nNow\, DICE enters 2026 with their latest single\, ‘COOLER.’ Recorded at the legendary EastWestStudios in Los Angeles alongside Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Strokes\, The White Stripes)\, the track represents a total evolution for the band. It is a blissful\, lighter\, and euphoric world that bridges the gap between their raw garage-rock energy and a new\, sophisticated pop-rock refinement. \nBy working with Chiccarelli to move past the bones of the song\, experimenting with abstract layering and punchy synths\, the band brought in Jay Watson (POND\, Tame Impala\, GUM) to add his signature melodic depth and texture on keys. The result is a high-fidelity invitation back to those fleeting moments of freedom and possibility. \nDICE creates the soundtrack to experiences you’ll feel nostalgic for before they’ve even happened. As they continue to fly at their own altitude\, ‘COOLER’ marks the beginning of their most ambitious chapter yet\, a year defined by major milestones and a bold new vision that is only just beginning to unfold.
