An exciting opportunity to be part of a live performance at The Pav.

For anyone with an interest or passion for the performing arts - whether you're an actor, storyteller, dancer, musician, creator, maker, writer, troublemaker, clown or into production, we’ve got just the thing for you!


If you are a Secondary School or Upper Primary student and would like to learn how to devise shows and perform them, then we’d love to hear from you!


Participants will collaborate with professionals from Erth Visual & Physical Inc, one of Australia’s leading theatre companies (and a puppet or two), engaging in drama, storytelling, learning how to perform with hand-held and large-scale puppets and more, to create an original new performance at Bondi Pavilion.


You will experience the wonders of making theatre to create a unique site-specific performance, bringing audiences close-up to life-sized puppets of endangered creatures in the hidden spaces of the Bondi Pav.


To apply please fill out the EOI with your details. Applications close Sunday 6 April, 5pm.


You must be able to attend all workshops, dress rehearsal and performance time as outlined below:
