Why Perth audiences read His & Hers Reviews
His & Hers Reviews is an independent Perth entertainment publication founded by two professional performers. We attend Perth theatre productions the same way our readers do — as paying, honest audience members — and publish two perspectives on every show we see across His Majesty's Theatre, the State Theatre Centre of WA, the Regal Theatre and Perth's independent stages.
We cover mainstage plays, touring productions, WAAPA showcases and the WA independent theatre scene. Reviews go live within days of opening night so readers can decide whether a show is worth their ticket before the season closes.
