Harrison has performed leading roles in over 35 stage productions since 2020, including multiple seasons at Adelaide University's Elder Conservatorium, Adelaide Fringe, the Royal Show, Pelican Productions, Adelaide Youth Theatre, Northern Light, Shane Davidson, etc. Harrison starred as Young Elvis in the Adelaide season of Elvis: A Musical Revolution (David Venn Enterprises) at Her Majesty's and piloted the role of Rapskullio in Between the Lines Jr with New York producers at Junior Theatre Festival Australia 2023 (Newcastle, NSW).
