Arts South Australia is seeking to partner with a South Australian arts and cultural organisation to deliver its First Nations Theatre Fellowship.

A group of First Nations people who are participants of ActNow Theatre’s First Nations Arts Pathway Program,

Adelaide-based arts and cultural organisations, with theatre as a central focus, are invited to submit an expression of interest to be the host company to deliver and facilitate the First Nations Theatre Fellowship.

The Fellowship aims to provide significant work experience to South Australian First Nations emerging writers to develop their new works for the stage within an immersive and supported environment over a period of up to 12 months. Exposure of First Nations storytelling of lived experienced has historically been hidden from mainstream theatre and the Fellowship opportunity for two Fellows seeks to address this.

The successful host company will be granted up to $85,000 to manage and administer the Fellowship Program.

Expressions of interest close Friday 28 April 2023 at 5pm.
