**It’s official… the stars have come down to Holden Street.**

**Holden Street Theatres** are thrilled to announce the **full cast** for their 2026 in-house season opener – 

***Till the Stars Come Down***** by Beth Steel.**

And what a cast it is.

A powerhouse ensemble of some of Adelaide’s most celebrated and seasoned performers, coming together under the direction of **Nick Fagan** to bring this deeply human, electric story to life.

**Meet the company:**

**Martha Lott** as Hazel  
**Michelle Nightingale** as Maggie  
**Krystal Cave** as Sylvia  
**Jo St Clair** as Aunty Carol  
**Brendan Cooney** as Tony  
**Brant Eustice** as John  
**Steve Turner** as Pete  
**Spencer Scholz** as Marek  
**Laura Lines** as Leanne  
**Millie Fagan** as Sarah

With **Stage Manager Heather Jones, Lighting Designer Martin Smith, Costumes by Viki Burrett **and **Technical Manager Harry Ferguson,** the team that makes it all work built on experience, instinct, and serious theatrical firepower.

**About the play:**

It’s a wedding day.

Family gathers. Old tensions simmer. New fault lines begin to crack.

As the drinks flow and the night unfolds, long-held secrets rise to the surface — and what should be a celebration becomes something far more explosive.

Beth Steel’s *Till the Stars Come Down* is a fiercely funny, deeply moving portrait of family, class, and the fragile ties that bind us together. Raw, honest, and utterly gripping, it captures the chaos and beauty of people trying – and sometimes failing — to hold each other close.

**Launching their 2026 In-House Season**, this is everything you love about Holden Street:

Bold storytelling.  
Unflinching performances.  
And that unmistakable, up-close intensity you can’t get anywhere else.

This is theatre that grabs you, moves you, and stays with you.
