Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had any advice as to how I should go about starting a theatre compnay of my own. It seems there just arn't enough positions for young theatre makers outside of universities.
I have seen some posts about youth theate in WA, but here I am in NSW, and there is not much doing that I can see.

Any advice or anything that anyone can offer would be great.

Thanks,

Danne

Hi Danne
We started our own Company in WA three/four years ago, by approaching like-minded people we had worked with or heard about, with similar enthusiasm and expertise levels. The group included actors, playwrights, director, photographer, and a film-maker. We began with an idea of a project so that we worked together early, then went through the slow process of incorporation etc etc etc. It is hard work, but definitely worth it, although don't expect instant results. If you want more details, please feel free to email me at tina@collectiveunconscious.asn.au
Regards
Tina
