Calling for directors…
Noosa Arts Theatre is always interested in receiving submissions from directors wanting to stage productions including comedies, dramas, pantomimes, cabarets and musicals.
Calling creatives for our 2026 Season
We’re now accepting proposals for our 2026 production season.
We are looking to maintain our regular flagship programs of the One Act Plays festival, Shorts on Stage, at least one play and one musical. There is some flexibility in timing to allow for director availability and to avoid clashing with other local theatre programming.
Submitters are asked to complete a production proposal (see below for a link to the form) to provide information about the production and share their vision as a director.
Submissions will be reviewed by our Production Selection Panel, chaired by Nicola Wilson. The panel will determine which productions move to the next stage, at which stage directors will be asked to pitch.
In the coming years, we are looking to diversify our programming to attract new audiences and talent. While our current programming will continue to underpin our season, we are also planning short run and ‘front of curtain’ productions, which may showcase original material. If you are unsure whether your production idea may be suitable for our regular programming, please do submit for consideration for our new slots and future years.
While we are looking for experienced directors for our key productions, we also encourage new talent and look to provide learning opportunities, such as assisting a more experienced director.
The deadline for submissions is 30 June 2025 and the panel will review submissions and invite directors to pitch in July.
The process to recruit the selection panel will start end of May.
For further information contact the Box Office during office hours.
