Awarding-winning FLY-ON-THE-WALL THEATRE is one of Melbourne's most distinctive, well-known cult theatre producers. From the beginning the company created theatre like frustrated filmmakers. No other company in Melbourne, perhaps Australia lavishes such attention on aesthetic and mise-en-scene. FOTW's considerable output in the last decade has been slick, detailed and astonishingly varied. It has ranged from the dizzying homoerotic spectacle of "Miracle de la Rose" at Belvoir Street Theatre to the heights of sophistication and gentility in the company's main recreations of period Europe with "The Death of Peter Pan", "The Hive", "The Lost" and the acclaimed seasons of both "Loving Friends" and "An Indian Summer".
FOTW has premiered "The Object of Desire", "Half a Person", "Oblomov's Dream", "Falling So Slowly", "Five Minute Call", "Shakin' The Blues Away", "Good Morning Midnight!", "Quintessence", "Heights", "Sunset Children', literary adaptations like "Lady Chatterley's Lover", "Women in Love", "The Great Gatsby", "Turn of the Screw" and performed a numerous ground-breaking, salacious and shocking plays like the acclaimed "Homme Fatale" , "A Thousand and One Night Stands", the drug classic "In Angel Gear" and "The Singing Forest" yet it is equally at home mounting family shows - "Little Lord Fauntleroy", "The Secret Garden", "Anne of Green Gables" and "Seven Little Australians".
