POMONA to Make South Australian Premiere at Little Theatre

Adelaide University Theatre Guild will present the South Australian premiere of Pomona by Alistair McDowall from August 7-16 at the Little Theatre.

Directed by Thomas Midena, the contemporary drama follows Ollie as she searches for her missing sister. Her investigation leads her to Pomona, an abandoned concrete island hidden at the heart of the city, where unsettling truths and dangerous forces await those who venture too close.

As Ollie digs deeper into the mystery, she discovers that others have paid a heavy price for seeking answers. The play explores themes of isolation, exploitation, and the ways people choose to confront—or avoid—the darker realities of the modern world.

First staged in the United Kingdom to critical acclaim, Pomona has become one of McDowall's most widely produced works. Known for its fragmented narrative structure and atmospheric storytelling, the play combines elements of mystery, psychological thriller, and contemporary horror.

The Adelaide production marks the first time the work will be presented in South Australia.
