ABOUT MAKERS HUB
Run by leading professional theatre workers from around Australia, and locally, our Makers Hub workshops build and develop the region’s physical theatre, performance making, and backstage capacity.
The program engages and supports local artists and theatre workers with skills development training, forming deeper connections with NORPA and the wider creative community, and providing opportunities for future collaboration.
