Producing in the Performing Arts - Free Forum Wgtn

Producing in the Performing Arts

From Idea to Public Performance: Imagine, Harness, Realise

This public forum is for everyone interested in the performing arts. It is a networking opportunity for current producers and the theatre community.

There are a plethora of great ideas for productions in the performing arts and an abundance of talent to realise the visions – writers, actors, directors, dancers, stage managers, lighting and sound technicians, front-of-house personnel, publicists … But there is a lack of people guiding the process and bringing those ideas into existence – producers!

How does a great idea go from the visioning stage to being experienced by an audience?

Producers with diverse approaches including Stephen Blackburn, Caroline Armstrong, Eleanor Bishop, Mark Westerby and Bert van Dijk will unlock the secrets to success and investigate challenges getting performance works ‘staged’ at a variety of sites and venues.

Early career artists are encouraged to attend. All welcome!
