Student Productions

This Spring Season, NIDA lights up with royal battles, divine chaos, forgotten histories, and restless dreams. Mary Stuart pits two queens in a fight for one throne. Orpheus in the Underworld hurls us into a riotous, Can-Can-fuelled afterlife. The Royal Experiment uncovers the women who held the cure to smallpox centuries before the world listened. And Peter Pan shimmers in a live-cinema dreamscape, where eternal youth meets the courage to grow up.

Led by acclaimed professional directors, these productions showcase the talents of NIDA students across acting, design, costume, props and effects, technical theatre, stage management, and set construction technologies.

Join us in celebrating the bold, the urgent, and the unforgettable—brought to life by a new generation of Australian storytellers.
