More Emily Steel news! ANANAB ANANAB, a short fi More Emily Steel news!
 
ANANAB ANANAB, a short film written and directed by Emily has been selected for Adelaide Film Festival.

What’s it about? When an eleven-year-old boy loses his mum’s attention to her new church (and a charismatic but creepy pastor), he must learn to speak in tongues to get her back.
 
Adelaide Film Festival is on from 14 - 25 October 2026.

THE ELEVATOR is now on at the Ensemble Theatre! Wr THE ELEVATOR is now on at the Ensemble Theatre! Written by another of our fabulous clients Eloise Snape.
 
What’s it about?
Margot’s back from mat leave — and she’s not messing around. Before nappies and sleepless nights, Eco Engines was spiralling through a PR meltdown, tanking faster than you can say “carbon footprint.” Now she’s back in the CEO chair, ready to rally her team of corporate eco-warriors and clean up the mess. But her comeback hits a snag when she gets stuck in the office lift. As tensions rise, Margot’s cool starts melting faster than the polar ice caps. THE ELEVATOR is a sharp, funny and fearless dark comedy that’s anything but clean.

What do the critics think?
Cultural Binge (★★★★): “snappy corporate comedy that goes hunting for the humanity behind high-tech consumerism … Eloise Snape’s script is wickedly tight in its execution”
Limelight(★★★): “Snape’s playfully prickly dialogue is very funny”
Sydney Arts Guide (★★★★): “THE ELEVATOR is a stimulating and well constructed play. It makes us think about the sacrifices we all make to fit in to the expectations of our environments. There is a strong sense of mystery in the first half of the play.”

On stage now until 18 October!

THE AIRPORT CHAPLAIN is now out! Co-created by our THE AIRPORT CHAPLAIN is now out! Co-created by our wonderful Showrunner Elise McCredie and Wooden Horse’s Jude Troy who both serve as Executive Producers. All eight eps are now out on @sbsondemand and the first two episodes are playing tonight 8.30pm on @sbs_australia 

What’s it about? Tobias Wallace (Hugo Weaving) is a fast-moving fixer with a constantly ringing phone, pockets full of cash, and an unorthodox approach to the daily crises unfolding inside the terminal. Convinced the airport couldn’t run without him, Tobias has never encountered a problem he couldn’t solve until he meets his formidable new boss Mira (Shabana Azeez), who deems him a walking liability. Their clash sparks a power struggle that reverberates through the terminal, affecting the cleaners, baggage handlers, and passengers, who are all navigating their own hopes and challenges amid the constant chaos of life in the airport.
