26 OTT 2026 · In this episode of The Front Row, host Scott Henderson speaks with set designer Jeremy Allen about creating the stage world for Whispering Jack: The John Farnham Musical, opening at Sydney's Roslyn Packer Theatre. Allen discusses drawing inspiration from 1980s Australian culture, local venue architecture like the Enmore Theatre and RSLs, and working with director Mitchell Butel to distill 30 to 40 real-life locations into a dynamic visual space.
He also touches on how his background in architecture shapes his approach to theatrical space, balancing minimalist and maximalist designs across past projects like The Normal Heart and Dear Evan Hansen, and using clever staging misdirection to deliver a grand stadium transformation for the climax of "You're the Voice"
