SA's first musical theatre company brings talent home in debut stage

The first South Australian musical theatre company, Full Circle, aims to bring local talent home by debuting on stage with the musical "Catch Me If You Can." Founder Jo Casson, an arts veteran, formed the company to stop the ongoing exodus of performers from Adelaide to larger cities in search of work. Jo Casson, along with others, noticed that every major city had a professional local theatre company but Adelaide was lacking. The company will perform Catch Me If You Can at Futures Theatre in Paradise from November 5-7.
