Everyone’s favourite Award-Winning pansexual, time-travelling songbird returns to Ballarat with a cabaret steeped in desire, decadence, and delicious disaster. Blending operatic splendour with pop seduction, they weave a glittering tapestry of love, lust, and lingering regret — all delivered with wicked wit and a velvet voice made for sin. Best of Cabaret Winner Adelaide Fringe 2026. Best in Cabaret Nominee Melbourne Fringe 2025.

BMCA Productions present 'Mary Poppins Jr'. The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that 'Anything can happen if you let it.'

Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play, and 2009 Olivier Award for Best Comedy. God of Carnage by Yasmina Reza is a one act black comedy. A playground scuffle brings two sets of parents together for a cordial discussion - but civility quickly unravels in Yasmina Reza's biting comedy God of Carnage. What begins with espresso and diplomacy ends in chaos, as facades crack and tensions explode. Directed by Ruby Abbott in her full-length directorial debut, this sharp, fast-paced satire takes a hilariously uncomfortable look at modern parenting, social pretence, and the thin line between order and anarchy.
