Madelaine Nunn is the creator of Mad Nun Productions and co-founder of Three Birds Theatre. Both companies have a strong history of touring new Australian work across metropolitan and regional communities, creating theatre that resonates with local audiences while sparking national conversations.

Mad Nun Productions specialises in bold, comedic theatre with a sharp edge. Whether through witty characters or darkly funny situations, the company uses comedy as a tool to explore complex themes and taboo subjects. Much of its work champions strong, multifaceted female characters and consistently places women at the centre of the stage.

Community connection is central to the company’s ethos. Productions are designed to be accessible, adaptable, and deeply engaging, with post-show discussions, workshops, and touring models tailored to regional and diverse audiences.
With Three Birds Theatre and Mad Nun Productions, Madelaine has toured widely, including Cactus (RAV Creative Learning), Three Birds One Cock (Creative Learning, Connecting Places, RAV Showcase), Enter Ophelia, Garage Girls and other regionally focused works. These tours demonstrate an ongoing commitment to making high-quality contemporary theatre available to communities beyond metropolitan centres
