POMONA

Written by Alistair McDowall
Directed by Thomas Midena

7-16 August 2026
Little Theatre
 

An amateur production by arrangement with Blue Posts Management Ltd

What darkness lurks at the heart of the city?


Ollie is searching for her sister, and all roads lead to Pomona: an abandoned concrete island at the heart of the city. But as others have learned the hard way, getting involved can cost you everything. Perhaps to survive, it’s better to ignore the truth. Pomona is a dark, intense and curious one act play about living in the modern world. It unfolds like a puzzle, flirts with the fantastical, and twists like a nightmare.

The play was first performed in London in 2014, and this will be its South Australian premiere.

    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.

    Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
    To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.

    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.

    Even when individual works did not fully land for me dramaturgically, there is no denying the precision, intelligence and care of the artists creating them.

    Unabashedly and unapologetically entertaining, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels delights in its hoax hokum, a whimsical hustle of musical comedy bustle.
