PROGRAM UPDATE:

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to postpone the Artist Development program due to occur in Spring 2024. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and please get in touch with Siena Balakrishnan sienab@brimbank.vic.gov.au for any questions. We will be working with Candy to get new program dates together for 2025.

Performing Artist, Candy Bowers is hanging out in Brimbank this Spring for a workshop series that will take your craft to the next level. She brings over 25 years of mastery as a Creative Producer, Director, Writer, Lyricist and Actor to the table.

Through this Artis Development Program we hope to create a group that enables collaborative mash ups. It’s open to folks at any level of experience, a mix of writers, rappers, actors, directors, dancers, producers, designers and dreamers would be marvellous!

We are fostering artistic exchange, conducting open art surgery and developing a foundation for more connected practice and professional development. The group will meet on Saturdays face to face and have the opportunity to test work in the theatre if they wish.

There will be a healthy mix of conversation, ideas, structure and flexibility. There’ll even be some discussion about where to next and you can even start to think about applying for a Bowery Theatre Residency for 2025?

The Bowery is working with Candy to form a group of creatives from across diasporas. Please join us if you are a young person, BIPOC and/or a person with disabilities. Inviting folks from across the West to pull up a chair and fill up!
