SUPPORT THE EPICENTRE
of INDependent THEATRE

Empowering Artists. Enriching Communities. Shaping the Future.
Bold. Diverse. Transformative Theatre.

​

For over 40 years, Theatre Works has been the beating heart of independent theatre in Australia. We’ve supported thousands of emerging and established artists, championing their bold visions and connecting them with audiences. We’ve been a home for stories that challenge, inspire, and reflect the rich diversity of contemporary Australia, cementing our vital role in the cultural landscape.

​

Yet, the challenges facing our sector have never been greater. Rising costs, reduced funding, and shifting cultural priorities demand urgent action to secure the future of Theatre Works. To continue delivering transformative theatre, supporting independent artists, and enriching our communities, we must act boldly—and we need your help.

​

Your donation will directly enable:

  • Expanding support for independent artists through professional development, rehearsal space, and production opportunities.

  • Building sustainable foundations to ensure Theatre Works thrives for decades to come.

  • Presenting bold, diverse programming that engages audiences and fosters connection.

​

Without your support, our ability to provide these vital opportunities is at risk. Every donation ensures we can continue empowering artists, enriching lives, and shaping the future of Australian theatre.

​

Together, we can safeguard the cultural impact of Theatre Works for generations to come.
