State Theatre Company South Australia, with its home on Kaurna land, is the flagship theatre company of South Australia and is a resident artistic company of the Adelaide Festival Centre.

We commission, perform and tour theatrical productions of new and existing, classic and contemporary, Australian and international work.

We are committed to a diversity of voices, including First Nations and culturally and linguistically diverse artists and audiences and providing access to all. State Theatre Company South Australia provides platforms for pushing boundaries and for being recognised for high quality and large-scale theatrical storytelling that has an eye to the sky but an ear to the ground.

With a stable, professional board and management, the Company enjoys the confidence of a supportive Minister for the Arts in a South Australian government which has recently announced funding for our new home. A substantial uplift in investment by Creative Australia in our 2025-2028 NPAPF agreement represents an endorsement of our ambitious strategic plan to make phenomenal, transformative and inclusive theatre that enriches South Australian and Australian culture.

A loyal and growing subscriber base, enthusiastic supporters and emerging private investors reflect confidence in the breadth, depth and quality of our work, with a commitment to First Nations led work, gender equity in lead creative roles and commissioning and presenting new work.

The Company has a deserved reputation for providing a safe and structured professional environment for theatre making and is an integral part of a vibrant industry ecosystem with highly valued relationships with schools, universities, artists and companies in a State which has a leading reputation in the arts.

We are seeking an energetic, collaborative, committed and creative theatremaker to build on the strengths of our Company and to realise our ambitions to have a deep and meaningful impact on the local culture and build the Company’s profile and partnerships nationally.

Our future will incorporate new ways of delivering our artform, including through technology, programming, creative collaboration and venues. Flexibility, creativity and innovation are key to this, both in our core business of producing the highest quality live theatre as well as developing and supporting creative talent and the sector in South Australia.
