'In the Woods' follows the story of a family enjoying a day out in the woods when a young girl becomes fascinated by the forest creatures, follows them and becomes lost. A group of scouts planning a Jamboree amongst the gumtrees save the day. Performed by students from the Mighty Good Talent school.

Struggling young playwright, Will Shakespeare, is tormented by writer’s block, working on his latest project - Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate’s Daughter. That is, until he finds his Muse in the beautiful Viola de Lesseps, who secretly wishes to be an actor. Their forbidden love draws many others - including Queen Elizabeth - into this often hilarious romantic drama, and inspires Will to write the greatest love story of all time.

Tom Stoppard and Marc Norman’s joyous screenplay won them an Oscar, as did the film itself. Will and Viola were played by Joseph Fiennes and Gwyneth Paltrow. Lee Hall (author of the musical Billy Elliott) adapted the screenplay into an instant, celebratory stage hit in London, in 2014.


MENwhoDANCE showcases Charlie, Ricky, Willian, Dhuruva, Calin, and Bailey. This high energy show features their various dance styles. Including the latest street moves, a classical story piece, and athletic sport prowess. Follow the men as they head through construction sites, Bollywood, and under the sea. They tap, sing, leap, flip, and even meet an alien.

​You can’t help but shout and laugh out loud with excitement, while these six men of dance do their thing. The show strikes the perfect balance between edge-of-your-seat dare devil action, irresistible romance, and comedy. It’s more than a dance show, it’s an experience.


It’s Alex’s 21st birthday. He wasn't expecting to make it this far. He's struggling to stay afloat amidst a haze of drugs, summer heat and difficult decisions, and his girlfriend Soph and friends Benny and Frankie are worried. A contemporary kitchen-sink drama with aspects of surrealist physical theatre, 'ICARUS' is a reflection on today's youth.


Following a sell-out season at the Guild Theatre in Melbourne, 'ICARUS' is bursting onto the Adelaide Fringe scene filled with the passion, anger and struggle of contemporary youth. A new work written by Tulipa Rodriguez-Quin and designed and performed by a team of passionate emerging creatives, it explores what it's like to lose yourself without a lifeline.

Journey to the centre of the stage at Adelaide Theatre Academy

The safety and well being of your child is as important to us as it is to you. Our teachers genuinely CARE about your children. All teachers hold First Aid certificates, Police Clearances and receive ongoing training, mentoring and support.


Children learn to trust their own ideas, develop perseverance, empathy, teamwork, to feel confident in their own ability and develop the confidence they need to tackle the challenging situations they are confronted with in life.


We strive to make children feel proud of their personal achievements. Children are supported to develop at their own pace without the pressure of exams and competitions.

Students participate in at least 2 performances each year which often involve sets, lights and costumes. Students are often invited to participate in events such as TV work, charity concerts, Fringe events, Christmas pageants and more!

We know you are busy so we don't expect you to sew costumes. We know you need to budget, so we don’t charge for regular ‘in house’ performances. We know that family is really important so we invite all of family to attend performances.

My daughter Lily started at Theatre Bugs in Fairy Babes with Bernie…. it has been most rewarding to see how she has grown in confidence as she was shy. I remember her first concert and I could hardly get her on the stage…. now a totally different child and is the one leading her dance routines. She is now starting in Combo Bugs next term. She is very excited.

My daughter loves her Theatre Bugs classes. She is full of energy & this provides a great outlet for her each week, allowing her to perform, use her imagination and have fun all at the same time.

My son Ollie has low muscle tone and hyper-flexibility. And he is also an active boy with a huge imagination. Theatre Bugs not only helped him with developing his co-ordination and confidence, but in channeling his energy in a more structured and planned way. Sadly we moved to Sydney and we miss Joni and the amazing team at ‘Bugs’. Come to Sydney, we miss you!!

A lovely evening last night at the Salisbury Carols. Such a pleasure to perform with my full band, fantastic backing singers, and the kids from Theatre Bugs.

Thanks for coming to Mount Gambier. My daughter thought today was awesome. She’s so excited to be playing Swish The Mermaid in Peter Pan. Thanks to the 2 vibrant young ladies that have come down. You Rock!

Thank you TB for being child focussed and providing outstanding and individual support for each family – impressive!! I appreciate your clear communication and professional approach. So impressive!

What incredible experiences for the children to work with professional stage management teams in such a positive and supportive environment. I love the way that TBs link with other businesses to provide opportunities for our children.

Alice in Wonderland by Theatre Bugs at the Forge Theatre, Marryatville, is a wonderful show of young local talent. Some stand out singing and great dance moves by the cast. And best of all they looked like they were having a great time performing to the audience. There’s a mix of songs – some classics as well as recent pop songs, so they can showcase a variety of different dance moves. There would have been some very proud parents in the audience tonight.

It sounds like we are old hands at this now, being in our 5th year. Miss 7 loves seeing her friends each week, loves seeing Bernie each week, and TB is the one thing she tries very hard not to miss out on.

I love how she and her fellow combo bugs amaze Bernie (or so she says) with how well they learn their lines.
