A scene from Sunshine Super Girl. Picture by Paz Tassone

1 Sunshine Super Girl: Written and directed by Yorta Yorta/Gunaikurnai theatre maker Andrea James, this is the story of Indigenous Australian Evonne Goolagong who, with the support of an outback farming town, overcame many obstacles and rose to become the No.1 tennis player in the world and a household name by the age of 19. She won 13 majors and ranked 12th all-time in championship wins. Queanbeyan Performing Arts Centre, November 2 to 5. Contains mild coarse language and adult themes. See: theq.net.au.

2 The Wharf Revue: Looking for Albanese is the latest iteration of the long-running satirical revue. This year the Wharfies - Jonathan Biggins, Drew Forsythe and Phillip Scott, joined by Mandy Bishop - take aim at the Greens, Pauline Hanson, Jacqui Lambie, Bob Katter, Boris Johnson, King Charles III, and other luminaries in skits and songs. The Playhouse, Canberra Theatre Centre, until November 5. See: canberratheatrecentre.com.au.
