Come share some bubbles as we celebrate our record breaking 2026 year and launch our exciting 2027 performance seasons. The Blackheath theatre Company 2027 Season Launch will be held at the Bates hall in Blackheath on 10 October 2026 at 5pm. All welcome!

We will unveil the three live theatre spectaculars we plan to stage and invite you tell us how you might like to be involved in some way either in the spotlight, backstage, or in some other supporting role.

The first season from 1 April features The Female of the Species, a wickedly dark comedy by acclaimed Australian playwright Joanna Murray-Smith. Inspired by a real-life incident involving author Germaine Greer, the story sees an influential feminist writer confronted by a deranged fan. Chaos ensues and the drama is heightened by the arrival of a distressed daughter, anxious son-in-law, frustrated publisher and baffled Uber driver.

Timed to capture the Blue Mountains’ Christmas in July spirit, will see our first ever staging of a pantomime. Cinderella’s much-loved story from 12 July will be our most ambitious production yet. We will be reaching out to involve young and old in this fast-paced magical bundle of musical fun. So, it’s not only Cinderella and Prince Charming who have a ball.

Then from 26 September we stage our ever-popular Short Play Season. It continues to be a sold-out season as we showcase new works by playwrights from across the Blue Mountains. It has proven to be a wonderful opportunity for a wide range of talent, including actors and production crew. The ingenuity of storytelling never disappoints.”
