Who is Lara Newman?
Lara Newman is an improviser in the cast of Time After Time, a piece of unscripted theatre made at Improv Theatre Sydney. Built on what the audience offers, the play follows a single relationship as it leaps across the years and across generations, looking at what families hand down, the beliefs people inherit and the habits they choose to break. The show grew out of the theatre's Incubator Programme, which develops new improvised work and new voices. Nishita Merchant directed it, and Newman played alongside Sophie Long, Lauren Donikian, Jordana Wegman, Angie Bradburn and Merchant in the Main Theatre at the 2026 ITS Comedy Festival. [1]
