BUMP IN PRODUCTIONS is an independent theatre company established in 2004 by a group of young comedic actors. Originally founded to bring musical theatre to a new audience, our mission has developed to stage daring, contemporary theatrical productions in an affronting thrust-theatre format.
Our formula is to pair high-quality performers with innovative direction, to deliver an out of the ordinary experience to our audience.
Notable productions include the SMH acclaimed production of I LOVE YOU, YOURE PERFECTNOW CHANGE and the NSW premiere of the Tony award winning musical URINETOWN. In 2009 BUMP IN PRODUCTIONS joined forces with THE WILLOUGHBY PERFORMING ARTS UNIT to produce the Zenith Murder Mystery series.
Our mission is to present popular, entertaining, professionally produced shows to the Willoughby community and beyond.
BUMP IN PRODUCTIONS is a privately funded organization. Our passion for theatre is infectious and shines through in our work. Our productions would not be possible without the tireless contribution of many individuals, for which we are truly grateful.

THE MOUSETRAP - The world's longest running play
THE MOUSETRAP has been thrilling audiences from around the world for as long as HRH Queen Elizabeth II has been on the throne. Originally staged in London's West End in 1952, it has enjoyed the longest initial run of any play in history, with over 24, 000 performances so far.
More than 10 million people have seen this classic murder mystery since it opened. For almost 60 years, no trip to London was complete without going to see THE MOUSETRAP at St Martin's Theatre, and being warned at the end of the performance never to reveal its surprise ending. Although THE MOUSETRAP has been performed in more than 40 countries and translated into over 20 languages, this entertaining comedy thriller has never before been performed in Australia.
BUMP IN PRODUCTIONS is proud to have obtained the first Australian professional rights to this famous play. We are delighted to invite you to our elegant and hugely entertaining premiere production of THE MOUSETRAP.
