For Artists
upskilling our local creative community
La Boite prides ourselves on being an artist-focused company – we prioritise the makers and shapers of new works through opportunities for upskilling the local creative industry with a suite of development programs and a broad range of opportunities for artists.
We LOVE to see work – no matter what your specialty, feel free to invite us! We are a busy, small team (check out our team here), but we endeavour to see as much work as we possibly can. Please send any invitations (with as much notice as possible) to producing@laboite.com.au
We unfortunately are unable to read unsolicited scripts. However, we’re always happy to meet and chat when we have the capacity – if you’d like to meet with someone from the La Boite team to talk about your work, please send an email to producing@laboite.com.au.
Please keep in mind that we are most interested in work that aligns to our vision, mission and values – you can read about what we’re passionate about on our About Us page, or in our most recent Strategic Plan.
#Skills Development Programs
Scrap Monster Workshop
The Roundhouse foyer has been transformed into a veritable monster factory where you can indulge your own Frankenstein fantasy and create your own customised Little Monster. In line with the eco-thriller themes of WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!, all monster elements are made from recyclable materials taken from the props and puppets that you’ll see on stage.
Assembly+
It’s our birthday, and we’re celebrating – Assembly just got bigger and better!
In celebration of our 100th year of operation, we’ve supercharged La Boite’s flagship artist development program into ASSEMBLY+ – a six-month program inviting nine writers, nine directors and eighteen actors aged 18+ and in their first five years of professional practice, to create a brand new short work for the stage.
Artist Masterclasses
Our acclaimed Masterclass series continues in 2025 with two sensational artist focused sessions across the year. These 2-hour sessions will speak about key aspects of artistic life, practice and will be led by industry professionals sharing their advice and techniques, each culminating in a facilitated Q&A session! An excellent opportunity for artists to peek behind-the-scenes and audit creative practice.
Director Observerships
La Boite offers an exciting opportunity for emerging theatre directors to gain hands-on experience as director observers during the rehearsal period of a mainstage production.
