Over the past five years, Disa has worked as an actor, assistant stage manager, stage manager, production assistant, producer, technical operator, lighting designer, and more.

This is Disa’s first production with Lakespeare and they are excited to take on this opportunity, working with old and new friends and managing a show across multiple indoor and outdoor venues. Disa was one of the stage managers for the Multicultural Festival 2026 and will be the stage manager and lighting designer for Chaika Theatre’s The Deep Blue Sea which will open at ACT Hub on the 12th of June. Disa is employed at the Canberra Theatre Centre as one of their wardrobe staff and at Eclipse, Lighting and Sound as one of their technicians. In their spare time, Disa enjoys playing music and finding new arts and crafts projects which are more often than not, left unfinished. They hope you enjoy the show.
