Australia’s most famous bushranger and outlaw, Ned Kelly, has returned — not to Glenrowan, but to the stage. Nearly fifty years after Reg Livermore first unleashed his wild, homegrown musical about Ned Kelly, Victorian Opera has brought it roaring back to life. Livermore, who once strutted as Frank‑N‑Furter in The Rocky Horror Show and electrified audiences in Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar, calls it a “neglected musical.” Maybe so — but this revival proves Ned Kelly isn't just a one-hit wonder. In my latest podcast, I explore Kelly’s legend, Livermore’s legacy, and how this forgotten musical fights back after years of being left for dead.

This podcast episode is for anyone who has ever strayed from their hometown.

On August 7, 1994, police stormed the Tasty Nightclub in Melbourne and forced 463 people to strip-search, humiliating and violating a queer community that had come to dance and be themselves.

The raid sparked lawsuits, a landmark settlement, and a movement for dignity and police accountability, becoming a defining moment in Victoria’s LGBTQ+ history and a reminder that hard-won freedoms must be defended.

Join Noel Anderson in a live outdoor episode from Alma Park as he celebrates Delta Goodrem's breathtaking aerial performance at Eurovision. He explores how the spectacle captured Australia's love for big, theatrical moments and turned a stunt into an emotional metaphor for confidence and defiance.

With humour and affection, Noel reflects on Delta's journey from pop sweetheart to show-stopping icon, and why Australians adore diva moments that lift us—literally and figuratively.

In this episode of '15 Mins of Fame,' we review Melbourne Theatre Company’s 2026 staging of Tennessee Williams’s The Glass Menagerie, a memory play sharpened with a contemporary, queer-tinged edge. The episode examines how direction, design and standout performances bring fresh life to this American stage classic, reminding us why Williams's work still matters over 80 years later.

Rebel Wilson makes her directorial debut with The Deb, a feel‑good Australian musical about a Sydney influencer dumped into her cousin’s rural hometown and the small‑town obsession with a deb ball. But what should you expect — pop‑driven numbers, warm performances from the cast, maybe even a score that sticks in your head.

We review The Deb, a film that’s also been dogged by some behind‑the‑scenes legal drama, and let you know whether this Aussie musical is worth seeing.

This episode is unashamedly about bubbles — why, you ask? Because we’ve got Dr Hubble, and the man knows more about bubbles than most people have had bubble baths.

On Inside the Bubble for Noel Anderson’s 15 Minutes of Fame, he talks through the tricks of the trade, slips in a little science, and keeps the conversation bubbling along. Dr Hubble is in town for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, spreading joy — and his lifelong obsession with bubbles — one shimmering sphere at a time.

Think you know everything about bubbles? Think again. This episode might just burst your assumptions.

Hosted by Noel Anderson featuring Dr Hubble

In this episode, we review Melbourne Theatre Company’s West Gate. A 1970s-set drama that balances warm camaraderie, blokey humour and the constant threat of danger beneath the unfinished West Gate Bridge.

With strong ensemble performances and an imposing industrial set, the production captures both the spirit of the workers and the looming tragedy that defined the bridge’s collapse. It is an unmistakably Australian tribute that honours the lives lost.

We’re back — sharper, louder, and done explaining ourselves. This year, I’m retiring the long‑winded apologies and owning every choice without a TED‑Talk‑length disclaimer. A quick hit to kick off a cleaner, bolder season.
