Why do we do this?

By day, Josh and Lee are regular, working citizens. By night they're treading stages of theatres across Adelaide. Join them, and a delightful array of guests, to explore the sheer insanity and time consuming commitment of amateur theatre. With a few honest stories, some silly accents and a healthy dose of humour, they attempt to figure out - why do they do this.

    Robert Andrewartha

    Rob Andrewartha is a milliner, a costume designer and a true creative. Though his experience spans decades, his design work spans more than two centuries - from 1810, 1920 to the rocking 1950s and beyond! His ability to transform a show and a performance through his exquisite talent, taste and attention to detail is unparalleled. Many a show has rested on the shoulders of his bold, subtle and articulate period costumes. The quality of his costuming prowess is such that whole shows can be staged with his dressing and styling - with no backgrounds required! Who needs sets when we have the humble, kind natured, all round great human - Rob!

    Miriam Keane

    Dr. Miriam Keane has graced many facets of our theatre community. Onstage, backstage, directing, on committees and writing reviews. Miriam is a hard-working and devoted thespian. When she is not involved in a show as a versatile actress, precise director or another hands on role, she’s seated in the theatre to enjoy, support and participate as an enthusiastic audience member. There’s not many people that can tackle - and make the most of - all these disciplines and always come out on top but Ms Keane is one! Enjoy!

    Bronwyn Ruciak

    Bronwyn Ruciak is a jill of all trades when it comes to the Adelaide theatre scene. Actor, producer, marketer and keen supporter of many companies. We're blessed for getting her boundless energy in the studio to talk about why she does the wonderful magic you all get to see. Bronwyn’s creativity has grown wings and taken flight with her company - Butterfly Theatre. Aimed at creating brave shows in quirky spaces - think pubs, clubs and anywhere in between - the company was born of a love for the “the Athens of the south” (as she affectionately calls Adelaide). With Butterfly Theatre Bronwyn has taken the brave step to guide Adelaidean audiences into new and exciting realms and changed our idea of the pub as place of celebration to place of performance. You may pick up on some advice and inspiration your-self or just enjoy this very fun chat! Enjoy!
