One Strange Night at the Jumbuck Hotel
By: Ethan Cook
DIRECTED BY: GLEN BARTON
August 13 - 22, 2026
A taut, darkly comic thriller set entirely inside a forgotten outback pub — where the wrong words, the wrong strangers, and something lurking in the dark collide in one suffocating night.
A raw, confronting and genuinely unsettling debut from local playwright Ethan Cook.
