COMING IN 2024:

WHAT'S ON:

Everything is great in Paper City, the most politically correct city in the world! Until one day, the corrupt government of Paper City signs off on the construction of an environmentally disastrous mining project, and they get more than what they’ve bargained for. Enter…KOALAZILLA!

Written by Keziah Warren with Amber Grossmann and directed by Amber Grossmann.

Performed by JUTE Actors Studio 2023 senior acting graduates.

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.
