About the Business

Sport for Jove Theatre was founded in 2009 through the creation of an outdoor Shakespeare Festival in Sydney's Hills District and Leura in the Blue Mountains. The brain-child of Artistic Director Damien Ryan, the Festival produced a repertory season of Romeo and Juliet, directed by Ryan, and A Midsummer Night's Dream, directed by Ryan and Terry Karabelas.

The company's first performance was A Midsummer Night's Dream on December 7, 2009 in the Roxborough Park Rose Garden, Baulkham Hills. With Ryan's house across the road, the Rose Garden provided a perfect opportunity to build a high quality production with a genuinely local character. Shakespeare in the Rose Garden utilised more than 25 actors, musicians and crew, was run on a donation only basis and sold out the bulk of its season.

The inaugural Leura Shakespeare Festival in partnership with The National Trust of Australia (NSW) was presented in the exquisite Everglades Gardens, Leura in January 2010.

Established in 2009.
