Bondi Legal
Written by Tony Laumberg
Directed by Scott Beaton
7th February - 22nd February
A charming, feel good, zany courtroom comedy, set in Bondi in the 1990s.
When a young girl’s prize show-pony loses its mane after using a chemical company’s product, the ensuing court case is zany, hilarious and heartwarming.
Based on one of his real-life Bondi litigation matters, lawyer/playwright, Tony Laumberg will have you cheering for the Aussie Battler up against a cold Big Corporate Australia.
This chaotic courtroom comedy about trusting in your principles and standing up to bullies will be a funny, feel good start to Rep’s 2025 season.

The Shape of Things
Written by Neil Labute
Directed by Jules Heart
2nd May - 17th May
In The Shape of Things by Neil LaBute, the boundaries of art and relationships blur as a young couple navigates the complexities of love, identity, and transformation.
Set against a backdrop of a contemporary art world, the play explores the impact of personal choices and hidden motivations. As the characters reveal their true selves, the audience is drawn into a thought-provoking examination of honesty, manipulation, and the nature of beauty.
With sharp dialogue and unexpected twists, LaBute crafts a compelling narrative that challenges perceptions and leaves viewers questioning the true shape of their own lives.

Closing out the 2025 season is a play based on the popular award winning film Shakespeare in Love.
A boisterous romantic comedy set in the world of theatre.
Young Will Shakespeare has a bad case of writer’s block and desperately needs a muse. His new comedy, Romeo and Ethel the Pirate’s Daughter, isn’t turning out how he’d hoped and he’s up against a tight deadline to deliver his next masterpiece.
That is until he meets Viola de Lesseps, and a real-life romance starts to take hold. But Viola has a secret and this new play isn’t shaping up to be the light-hearted comedy Queen Bess demanded.
By Arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical on behalf of Samuel French A Concord Theatricals Company.
