An original Australian musical theatre production facilitated by Eddie Perfect (Beetlejuice, Shane Warne: the Musical) and a major new production from the Elizabethan/Jacobean canon developed by UK company Cheek by Jowl will premiere in 2026 as a result of two new three-year residencies hosted by the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA).
Announced today (Thursday 7 September), the residencies are supported through the Minderoo Visiting Artists program, and will involve students from a wide range of disciplines including Acting, Music Theatre, Aboriginal Performance, Dance, Music and Production and Design – as well as arts organisations and community groups outside WAAPA.
