WITTENOOM is an early development documentary musical that shines a light on one of Australia’s most tragic environmental disasters. Set in the once-thriving mining town of Wittenoom, the musical follows the intertwined stories of hardworking miners and their families as they grapple with corporate greed, government negligence, and the deadly effects of asbestos exposure. As the vibrant community crumbles under the weight of illness and loss, their fight for justice becomes a heart-wrenching call to action. Featuring a compelling original score and poignant storytelling, WITTENOOM delivers a captivating, socially conscious theatre experience that resonates deeply with audiences today, blending historical truth with an urgent message about corporate accountability and environmental justice.
WITTENOOM was a finalist in the 2025 APRA Professional Development Awards and is currently in the process of recording pilot works from the show. Music will be available.
