Jordan Bender

Jordan Bender is a 2023 graduate of the Adelaide College of the Arts, with an Advanced Diploma of Performing Arts (acting). Since graduating she has had the pleasure of teaching performing arts (acting, singing and dance) to the impressionable young minds of Adelaide, at Theatre Bugs and her old school, Pulteney Grammar school, teaching ages 1 to 16. Ever since Jordan was three she has never shied away from a chance of being on stage and has a particular love for musical theatre and singing. One of her favourite roles she has portrayed was Daughter in the 2025 Adelaide Fringe Season of ‘Unmothered’ an original musical written by Amelia Rooney about inter-generational trauma. One of her most notable roles since completing her Advanced Diploma has been performing in RAA’s yearly ‘Street Smart High’ convention, where she performed a live reenactment of a car crash in the role of ‘Claire’ to 10,000 high schoolers for 4 consecutive years. Additionally, she has loved being back for a second year of Book Week performances with Perform Education.
