Artist Programs A Pipeline
for new work
& Ideas
La Boite champions collaboration
- starting with our artists
Our series of Artist Development Programs, also known as HWY, is foundational to the work that we do at La Boite – a pipeline for artists, designed to inspire creativity, from commissions to dedicated developments of new work, conversations, workshops and participation in our annual HWY Live program.
This suite of artist development opportunities includes La Boite’s Associate Artists, Assistant Creatives, and Artists in Residence; a cohort of diverse theatre makers who work with us to develop new work over a 12-24 month period.
HWY is led by a commitment to collaborative practice, an exchange of creativity and skills, an ongoing conversation about theatre in Australia, and a drive to expand our reach and diversify voices on the La Boite stage.
