Adelaide theatre company Slingsby has announced its effective closure in 2026, the company’s 20th year of operation.
Slingsby will premiere its current project in development, A Concise Compendium of Wonder, at the 2026 Adelaide Festival (and also hopes to subsequently tour the work both nationally and internationally), after which the company will cease making new work.
The company’s precise end point is not definitive, Slingsby’s Artistic Director and CEO Andy Packer tells ArtsHub, ‘but the fact that we won’t be making any more work after this is really, definitely, the beginning of winding up the company’.
