What a special show this was. We were so lucky to be joined on stage by some wonderful older members of the Port Hedland community, who brought so much humour and heart to the performance.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made this performance one to remember, and to Matt Dann Theatre & Cinema for having us!

Seven months in, and weโ€™re getting closer to opening the doors to our new home!

The transformation of the Ellie Eaton Theatre at Claremont Showground has come a long way, with more of the spaces weโ€™ve imagined now becoming real.

With completion planned for later this year, itโ€™s so exciting to see the finishing line coming into view. We canโ€™t wait for you all to see it too!

A huge thank you to the WA Government, Lotterywest, the Royal Agricultural Society of Western Australia and everyone who has helped make the building of our new home possible!
