rollercoaster ensemble is led by a team of professional theatre makers who are committed to developing new work that is rich, potent and stimulating. our performances are shown in the diverse contexts of established theatre venues, corporate functions, educational forums and community festivals. we aim to artistically celebrate diverse perspectives and bring marginalised voices to the fore.
