It begins. Announcing our inaugural production.

The curtain is about to rise. We are proud to announce our first production.

In June 2026, we bring you The Seagull — Anton Chekhov's beloved classic, in Anya Reiss's brilliant contemporary adaptation.

Bold, moving, and achingly human, The Seagull follows a group of people gathered at an isolated country estate, each longing for something just out of reach: Fame. Love. Recognition. Relevance.

Dreams unravel. Hopes are dashed. Hearts are broken. Dark, funny, and profoundly true — this is theatre at its best.

Performed by a talented ensemble of local actors and creatives, right here in Castlemaine. Book now and be part of our very first season.
