📣 Matt Domingo returns for The Accidental Bride Creative Development

Next week, the second Creative Development of Shoba Sadler's work, The Accidental Bride, will take place here at Bulmba-ja. For the past few months, a group of emerging Indian actors have been working on developing their acting and performance skills and becoming familiar with the script with facilitator and actor Natalie Taylor. 

During the Creative Development, and the subsequent showcase on Saturday April 5th at 3pm, they will be joined by professional actor Matt Domingo, who will be back from his Queensland tour with JUTE and Overall Arts' production O, Ophelia. 

If you'd like to get a sneak peek at how theatre is made, see how the work has progressed since last year, join us on the 5th. Tickets are only $10 and include refreshments. 

PS - Happy Birthday @drmattdomingo

JUTE Theatre Company

From humble beginnings in regional obscurity, stretched and moulded through years of hard work, fuelled by tenacity, rigour and persistence, JUTE Theatre Company has become a dynamic, award-winning, nationally regarded new work theatre company, sitting at the forefront of industry practice and consistently seeking new boundaries to explore in theatre practice.

Drawing on over three decades of industry experience, JUTE is a crucible in which new stories and perspectives are forged that inspire our communities and allow us all to reimagine ourselves through powerful shared theatre experiences. JUTE yields the floor to regional voices to examine the marginal, the unexplored, the unforeseen, to create stories that impact us deeply and change our world.

We do this through a wide range of inclusive programs of new work development, productions and touring, our Dare to Dream regional and remote tours with residencies, training, mentorship and community outreach.
