Assembly

Are you an emerging director, writer or actor?

#About

La Boite's Assembly is a six-week skills development and showcase program, designed for twenty-one emerging artists.

Throughout the program, participants will collaborate with like-minded peers, create and develop a new work, and learn from La Boite artists through creative development workshops.

Seven directors, seven writers and seven actors are selected to participate, and work towards a public outcome at the culmination of the program.
