The Little Big Theatre Co is a new independent theatre company operating in Sydney, producing musical theatre across the city and inner west.

Founded by two queer theatre creatives, our mission is to create a joyful, inclusive community where all theatre lovers can thrive, bringing both new and well-loved works to the stage.

Our first musical, Penpals was performed at the Loading Dock as part of Qtopia's inaugural theatre season, and in 2025 we brought Drew Gasparini’s We Aren’t Kids Anymore to Australia alongside our Pridefest Cabaret Make It Queer.

What does 2026 have to offer? We’re bringing Kerrigan and Lowdermilk’s The Mad Ones, and it may just be your new musical obsession…
