Sarah Huston (she/they)
Sarah Huston is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans acting, stunt performance, filmmaking, and writing. Working across both screen and stage, Sarah explores the complexities of the human condition — investigating the physical and psychological limits of the body and mind with a sharp eye and an empathetic heart.
As a performer, Sarah brings a rare versatility, having appeared in local and international productions including Joe vs. Carole, The Fall Guy, and the upcoming War Machine. In 2023, she took to the stage as Finn in the critically acclaimed play The Bed Party, delivering a performance marked by emotional precision and fierce vulnerability.
Her creative process is as varied as her skillset — some days rooted in solitude and script analysis, others in rigorous physical training or fast-paced film sets. Whether navigating the quiet intensity of writing or the logistical orchestration of a production, Sarah thrives in the space between creativity and execution.
In 2025, she completed The Brutal Alchemy of Water, a psychological thriller short film that she wrote, produced, and starred in — a project first sparked by a movement-based performance developed during her 2023 Incubate Residency with Placemakers Gold Coast.
Sarah is also the founder and producer of Yeah Girl, a women’s skateboarding media platform dedicated to visibility and creative empowerment. Her work with Yeah Girl has reached international stages, including a speaking appearance on the Hollywood Content Creators Panel at Mobile World Congress in Los Angeles (2019).
Currently, Sarah describes her practice as explorative, emotive, and evolving — a reflection of her commitment to pushing creative boundaries while staying grounded in personal truth. Through this program, she aims to generate fresh momentum, forge new collaborations, and expand the limits of her own artistic language.
Her favourite places on the Gold Coast range from the stillness of coffee shop daydreaming to the wild energy of the beach, the forest, or the cinema — always seeking new stories in the everyday.
