2020 Griffin Ambassadors Program

Griffin Theatre Company is seeking applications for its 2020 Ambassadors program. Griffin Ambassadors is an annual access-all-areas program for Yrs 10, 11 and 12 students drawn from a diverse range of schools across NSW. Ambassadors are united by a common curiosity about contemporary Australian stories, a love of theatre and the motivation to know more. They might be techies, budding playwrights, directors or performers, or maybe just love going to see theatre.

Ambassadors participate in a structured, year-long program of activities. They attend all Griffin main season productions for free throughout the year, engage with casts and creative teams in post-show discussions, and explore various aspects of theatre craft in special workshops. It’s an opportunity for students to discover new Australian plays in a unique and intimate space, explore the issues behind the plays and potentially source scripts for Drama and Theatre major works. Interested students should apply here.
