Belloo Creative is an all-female, award-winning Australian theatre company that produces original contemporary works for stage and film.
Bringing people and stories out of the shadows
Belloo acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia, particularly the Jagera and Turrbal Peoples, on whose land our company is based. We pay our respects to Elders, those who have passed into the Dreaming, those with us today, and the Elders of tomorrow, as well as to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the lands where we live and work.
A female-led, award-winning Australian theatre company
Founded in 2013 by four women, Belloo is led by Co-Artistic Directors Caroline Dunphy and Katherine Lyall-Watson. The company creates bold, interdisciplinary works — blending text, movement, and design to create original, dynamic performances, installations, and digital works that resonate across cultures and contexts.
Belloo’s vision is to bring people and stories out of the shadows. We are committed to long-term collaboration, innovative storytelling, and deep artist and audience engagement. Our strength lies in nurturing projects and partnerships across years, states, and countries, ensuring our work remains artistically rigorous, inclusive, and deeply relevant.
“You don’t need to be in the biz to appreciate that this all-female company holds a firm place now in the Australian theatrical ecosystem. Having been brought on board by Queensland Theatre as Resident Company for 2019 and with a string of award-winning original productions... Belloo is one of our boldest, bravest, most original and transparent mouthpieces.” — XS Entertainment
