Bangalow Theatre Company is kicking off its 2025 season with a deeply moving and poignant production of Tiny Beautiful Things, opening this weekend at The Drill Hall Theatre in Mullumbimby. This marks an exciting milestone for the company, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary – an incredible achievement for a volunteer-run organisation dedicated to bringing powerful, thought-provoking theatre to the region.
Over the past decade, Bangalow Theatre Company has built a reputation for staging both classic musicals like Chicago, Rent, Hair, and Into the Woods, as well as daring original works such as The Beast and TakeOver, while winning awards and gaining industry praise and reviews nationwide. Now, in what promises to be its most exciting year yet, the company is setting the bar high with Tiny Beautiful Things.
Directed by the award-winning Anouska Gammon and featuring a stellar cast, this production is sure to be one of the standout theatrical events of the year. Reflecting on her connection to the play, Anouska says the first time she read this play, she laughed out loud and cried. ‘It was 8.45 am – I wasn’t ready to feel so much, yet I knew this writing couldn’t go unheard or unfelt. I thought, “YES!” Everybody needs this play, right now.’
Based on Cheryl Strayed’s bestselling book, Tiny Beautiful Things follows Sugar, an anonymous advice columnist who offers wisdom, joy, and unfiltered honesty to her readers. Audiences can expect an emotional rollercoaster filled with laughter, tears, and unforgettable storytelling.
