19.01.2022 ILT's first ever virtual administrative committee meeting!

18.01.2022 The ILT Administration will comply with the advice from the Australian Government Department of Health and Queensland Health with regards to the COVID-19 situation, as well as following the suggested approach of Live Performance Australia and other industry bodies. While the Federal Government maintains its ban on non-essential gatherings of 100 or more within indoor areas, and social distancing measures of 1 person per 4 square metres, it is impossible for us to function Reg...retfully, we have had to make some difficult decisions. The next two productions, Waiting for God and Turn a Blind Eye will not proceed in 2020. Our One Act Play Festival has been cancelled and there will be no performances by our sub-groups until further notice. Our Tourific Troupers Tours will likewise be cancelled. The safety and well-being of our members and patrons continues to be our priority. We thank you for your understanding in these unprecedented times. We will constantly review our decisions in accordance with Government advice and advise accordingly. We look forward to your much appreciated patronage once the current crisis is behind us.

17.01.2022 Wow! Thanks Theatre Haus! What an awesome year 2019 has been. Bring on 2020!

05.01.2022 In theatre we have a tradition- whenever the theatre is empty we are always sure to leave one light on. Typically on a stand in the center of the stage, this li...ght is known as the ghost light. There are many stories about its origin- but it’s meaning is unmistakable. It means though the theatre is empty, WE WILL RETURN. So here’s to us. The actors, the technicians, the directors, the carpenters, the designers, the dancers, the teachers, the students, the freelancers, those on tour, those at sea, the electricians, the stitchers, the makers, the stage managers.... THE ARTISTS. Many of us have taken big hits during this virus. Financial and emotional weights have come crashing down as our entire industry is reduced to nothing but a bunch of ghost lights. But those ghost lights are temporary place holders. They are a sign. We might be down now- but our passion, our creativity, our drive is still center stage. We’ll be unplugging those ghost lights in no time. Until then- here’s a ghost light- to let the world know we will be back. See more
