Theatre Works (TW) is one of Australia’s longest-running independent theatres, constantly reinvigorating & reimagining the sector by providing a hotbed for artist and audience development.
Theatre Works champions artists & work that embrace difference & celebrate risk, working to provide a supportive public platform for marginalised conversations & voices. This vision guides our foremost aim: To be the Australian epicentre of independent theatre and independent theatre makers by investing in, empowering and supporting artists of all experience, identity, background and aspiration to make ambitious works that reflect, redefine or reimagine contemporary Australia and contemporary Australian theatrical practice
Led by a ED/CP, the TW team comprises Production, Marketing & Publicity specialists, Artistic & Creative Specialists. TW’s Board are skilled across a relevant matrix of experience.
Our venue size, flexibility & capacity, and our team’s unique skill set is part of what makes TW so distinctive within the Victorian arts ecology.
Since 2017, we have supported 1,014 artists across 73 productions with an increase in audience attendance of 58%. The introduction of new initiatives such as the She Writes program and the revitalising of the Associate Artists has increased our value to emerging artists, and will continue to do so as we continue to add new development programs for artists of all experiences and backgrounds.
Our curated annual seasons traverse diverse performance styles and rigorous creative methodologies across all genres, investigating unique perspectives & creative approaches.
