The bones of us.
Cool Beans Theatre is one of Adelaide's newest youth theatre companies. Cool beans theatre is an inclusive, non-competitive, and fun space for young people to explore the Arts. We are a space where members are celebrated for being themselves and achieving personal goals. As a team, we pride ourselves on young people having fun, feeling empowered and developing a strong sense of self through arts.
Cool Beans Theatre was established in 2017, by a 16-year-old wanting a space for young people to create and explore the art through trial and error without judgment. The youth-driven theatre company encouraged young creatives to collaborate, create and dream. Cool Beans Theatre has since been involved in a number of live performances, produced two original fringe shows, held school holiday programs, and now hold weekly performing arts programs for other young people. With the guidance of professionals in the industry, Cool Beans Theatre is always working towards becoming a more inclusive, artistic and ever-growing community.
