For our final episode of 2027, we have someone very special. A powerhouse of a woman, eloquent, intelligent and deeply passionate about theatre, the wonderful Jill Bartlett OAM. Some of theatre’s greatest contributions happen behind the curtain, and Jill has spent more than five decades helping make the magic possible. As President of Therry Theatre, she brings an extraordinary commitment to Adelaide’s theatre community. First joining Therry in 1975, she discovered a place where her organisational talents could flourish and where a fabulous group of people would become an enduring part of her life. Her contribution is measured in countless hours of planning, organising and supporting the people who bring each production to the stage. Awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for her service to the performing arts in South Australia, Jill embodies the dedication, generosity and passion that keep community theatre thriving. A remarkable woman with a sharp mind, a generous heart and a wonderful story to tell. Ladies and gentlemen, one of the loveliest people we have ever met….Jill Bartlett OAM!
