MELBOURNE July - December 2024
These Australian Musical Theatre Artist Collective (AMTAC) mini sessions are an opportunity for musical theatre writers and composers to present selections of new works in progress to gain feedback and insight from working industry professionals and peers, in order to support their project's ongoing development while fostering a collaborative, creative, inspiring and supportive community.
Special guests will join the panel each session and share their insights, offer feedback and open up the space for discussion.
Cameron Steens - Facilitator and Co-Producer
Partnering with Salty Theatre on this initiative from the second session, producer responsibilities includes sourcing guest panellists, selecting the participating projects, and assisting in finding readers and I personally managed the marketing for the series.
