Inside the Jacky Rehearsal Room

Written by Black Swan State Theatre Company 28 September 2026 3 min

Take a look inside the rehearsal room for Jacky by Declan Furber Gillick. 

This bold work will be our final show of the year, and marks a very special collaboration between Black Swan and Yirra Yaakin.

In the video above, hear from Cast members Ian Wilkes (Barracking for the Umpire), Amy Mathews (The Almighty Sometimes, August: Osage County), Rueben Mongoo and Steve Turner (The Seed) about what this play offers each of them in its exploration of identity and relationships.

Jacky is a provocative work that is as sharp as it is touching. Expect punching humour, plenty of scandal, and a clever analysis of modern culture in one of the most exciting new Australian plays of recent years. 

Jacky by Declan Furber Gillick is showing at Subiaco Arts Centre from 23 October – 8 November.
