Bellarine Arts Centre, better known as the Potato Shed, revealed the details of its 2025 program at a season launch event last week.
With everything from comedy to opera, theatre to live music, the Potato Shed’s season 2025 draws on artists from the Bellarine, Greater Geelong and around the country.
Cabaret artist Geraldine Quinn hosted the launch at the Potato Shed, where she will return in July to present her Green Room Award-winning show The Passion of St Nicholas.
The 2025 season will begin with ethereal singer-songwriter Georgia Fields, who will perform as part of the outdoor Summer Series in early February.
Also part of that series, Americana on the Bellarine returns to the Potato Shed to showcase the best of Geelong and the Bellarine’s blues, roots, country, folk and rockabilly acts.
Other highlights throughout the year include the ever-popular Women of Wit comedy night, Three Birds Theatre’s Garage Girls and hilarious physical comedy Stickybeaks.
Recently appointed venue manager Mik Frawley paid tribute to the Potato Shed team, saying they had walked into the job to discover “a really amazing program” for next year.
“(The team) are to be congratulated for the shows that are coming through,” they said.
“I was really impressed with the diversity… I know it’s a cliche, but there is something for everyone.
“There are some really wonderful kids shows, some really high-quality comedy, as well as having some good, meaty theatre. And of course, the Morning Showtime series that people really expect and love.”
