Advocacy
making playwriting more accessible, available and visible
outreach and community development
To develop the best in new writing for the theatre we seek to partner with locally based organisations to encourage writers from all sections of society to tell their stories.
In partnership with theatre companies and their local communities, PlayWriting Australia can help provide access to the best theatre people and create a safe, creative learning environment. We are looking to work with targeted groups whether they be from non-English speaking backgrounds, young offenders or people not in education, employment or training.
