EUGENE SULEAU

Eugene has been making stuff up since 1999, when Chris John’s Splash Theatre Company revived Theatresports in Adelaide.

A trained actor (McLeod Daughters and A Wire Through the Heart), Eugene finds impro to be the perfect substitue to scripted plays. His career highlights include winning the Theatresports Celebrity Challenge in 2002 and 2003, and being runner up in Improvivor in 2003. He has played countless scenes and has received scores ranging from 15/15 to zero! In addition to On the Fly, Eugene works with Impro NOW and long-form impro company Changing Jennifers, and represented South Australia at the Theatresports National Championships in Sydney in 2010 and in Brisbane in 2011.

  

TERESA DE GENNARO

Teresa is an actor/singer trained at the Flinders University Drama Centre. She has worked professionally in a range of mediums and genres, from TV drama and comedy skit series to commercials, short and feature films. Stage wise she has juggled straight theatre, live improvisational comedy, physical and children’s theatre including musical theatre and Cabaret. She is a mezzo-soprano with a versatile voice that encompasses pop/rock, classical, soul, gospel & jazz.

Scholarships to her credit include the State Theatre’s ‘Adele Koh’ Acting Scholarship and the Adelaide Cabaret Festival Scholarship. The latter launched her into performing at Sydney’s major cabaret venues including The Basement, and at various corporate functions and club circuit venues. Included were a couple of sold out performances at the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.

Overseas Teresa sang cruising the South Pacific and East Mediterranean. She then relocated to London where she worked with theatre company Byzantine. Teresa then toured: as lead in her first British Pantomime, a chorus member in Sweeny Todd and as ensemble in a Musical theatre revue throughout the West End and Brighton.
She also acted in the award winning feature film Patient 17.

Returning to Adelaide, Teresa has spent two years cast as Sheila Duncan’s ‘Muriel’ in music theatre piece Why Muriel Matters. She has presented her 2 Cabaret shows: EURODIVA, a 2011 ‘sold out’ Fringe cabaret show sung in 10 different languages; and Diva School which toured the OOTS circuit. Other credits include plays: Perish the Thought, Shadows in the City of Light and Overture; and several children’s shows with On The Fly.

This Fringe Teresa extends herself into co-writing NO PLACE LIKE HOME – Carrick Hill for On The Fly.

 

JARRAD PARKER

Jarrad took up improvised comedy when he realised he could talk rubbish to a wider audience than just his family and friends.  He has performed in shows at the Rhino Room and Grace Emily, as well as the On the Fly Christmas show, and is loving the experience.  As are his family and friends, who appreciate hearing fewer puns on a daily basis.
