A musical rooted in the Coffs Harbour rainforest
Threads is an Australian eco musical written by Jade Naidu and presented by Naidu Theatre Company. Inspired by the rainforests around Coffs Harbour and Waterfall Way, it follows a seedling named Pip into the underground fungal networks connecting the forest.
Trees, animals and the relationships between them become the characters of the story. The musical uses those connections to explore community, deforestation and the protection of the natural world. Its Coffs Harbour production brought a locally developed work to the Regional Conservatorium in January 2026.
Lighting supply for an original production
Krank'd supplied TourPro ZB7 and ACME AECO 5 fixtures for the production, supporting Finn Appleton's lighting design. The two moving-fixture types formed our contribution to the theatre company's lighting package.
The moving fixtures supported a stage world that travelled from the rainforest floor into its imagined underground networks. Threads followed our lighting supply for Naidu's Hunchback of Notre Dame at the same conservatorium in 2025, continuing the relationship from an established musical into the development of an original Australian work.
