Salty Theatre AND Antipodes Theatre Company present the
2024 AMTAC HATCH LAB SESSIONS
Cameron Steens - Facilitator and Co-Producer
These Australian Musical Theatre Artist Collective (AMTAC) mini sessions are an opportunity for musical theatre writers and composers to present selections of new works in progress to gain feedback and insight from working industry professionals and peers, in order to support their project's ongoing development while fostering a collaborative, creative, inspiring and supportive community.
Partnering with Salty Theatre on this initiative from the second session, producer responsibilities includes sourcing guest panellists, selecting the participating projects, and assisting in finding readers and I personally managed the marketing for the series.
