RUMPUS Theatre
2020 Season Manager
As Season Manager of RUMPUS Theatre I was responsible for the successful delivery of the 2020 season, including our post-COVID recovery. This job included managing and maintaining the venue, OH&S, contracting, inducting, staffing, training, and generally doing everything needed to make a theatre run. And I got to support SIX incredible shows to get produced in Adelaide for their world premiers!
STRATA/FORGIVENESS
A black comedy tracing the roots of betrayal; a tragedy about what we cannot forgive in the people we love.A double bill of two new award-winning South Australian plays that explore love, secrets, and the tragic consequences of avoiding our past.
CHAMELEON
A stirring mash-up of satire, storytelling and physical comedy.
Smashing stereotypes, Brit Plummer’s Chameleon explores gender dynamics and the harmful effects of social conditioning with wit, vivacity, and whip-smart intelligence.
HOW TO KILL YOUR HAMSTER
A surreal dramedy about rape culture and how it influences the lives of young women.
Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda live in a share house in Thebarton. Crashing at their digs is Ham, a sensitive-good-guy who also happens to be a guinea pig, and Fran Fine, a rescue dog.
BLOOD, SWEAT & KARAOKE
Step into the ring. Breathe. Watch out for the hook!
Joseph “Joppy” Galura is a 1st generation Australian Filipino. Raised in one culture, surrounded by another, but not fully accepted in either, he is struggling to find his place in life. Joppy’s only comfort is an unlikely pair of past-times that tie both his cultures together: boxing and karaoke.
BUTTERFLY KICKS
“Do you feel like one of those plastic wind thingys outside car sales yards?”
An adrenaline rush of first love, competition, and friendship, Butterfly Kicks by Jamila Main follows three teenagers as they experience queer self discovery, bravery, and loyalty in their claustrophobic coastal town.
