Welcome to Season 2025 – HotHouse UNLIMITED, a season of unlimited possibilities, where stories of resilience, transformation, and empowerment unfold. Six extraordinary works. Five generations of storytellers. Unlimited inspiration.

From verbatim to vignettes, improvisation to intergenerational exchange, each work in the season unquestionably challenges the status quo, activating our imaginations, stirring emotions and expanding our intellect as we wrestle new futures into existence.

Produced inHouse and featuring eight local community women leaders, I’M WITH HER honours generations of empowered women in their unyielding stand against sexism to reclaim their voices.

Belvoir Theatre’s Scenes From The Climate Era sees five fast-paced millennials tackle the unavoidable issue of climate grief with humour and heart, trading anxiety for activism to find a new hope.

New Zealand’s A Slightly Isolated Dog dip hilariously into the dangers of repressing one’s identity, inspiring authenticity in this unconventional Monty Python-esque adaptation of Jekyll & Hyde.

In norpa’s My Cousin Frank, stage legend Rhoda Roberts AO shares the story of her cousin – Australia’s first Aboriginal Olympian – as he and generations of her family step into the ring, uncompromising in their fight for dignity and respect, rising as champions for culture and change.

Anything You Can Do by PonyCam will celebrate the beauty of ageing, an often-overlooked journey that brings wisdom, grace, and a deeper connection to life. Two generations – including a community cast of mature age, collaborate to unravel the journey of ageing, finding common ground in youth and wisdom.

We close out the year with The Road I Took a riveting retrospective from musical theatre royalty and three-time Laurence Olivier Award winner (Best Actor in a Musical) Philip Quast, sharing songs and
stories of his extraordinary career across Australia and the West End.

We also invite you to expand your limits and try something new this year with our Friday Night Live series – our eclectic program of comedy, music, cabaret and cultures. There is fun for the family with This Is Your City – The Live Game, and wonderous Whalebone kicking it all off in the January holidays!

Together, the works of our season are a tribute to the unlimited creativity of our region. A season which encourages us all to imagine a world without limits—where voices are heard, change is embraced, and
empowerment is felt by all.

We invite you to join us in our 2025 Season of unlimited joy and celebration of the human spirit.
