Arts NSW has terminated a $1.5 million, four-year contract with Short + Sweet Productions Australia Ltd, the company responsible for delivering a regional theatre festival, due to a ''serious breach'' of the funding agreement.
We are now accepting submissions for works for our two Wildcard programs! For more information please click the 'Festival Submissions' tab above.
Submissions close January 6th, 2014.
As a part of the 2014 Festival, which has a focus on the professional development of the artists involved, we have implement a mentoring program. A range of Sydney-based professional dance artists have volunteered their time to work with and give feedback to our choreographers during their creative process. A massive thank you to our amazing mentors!
THE SHORT + SWEET CABARET MELBOURNE GALA LINE UP ANNOUNCED:
After a week of non-stop cabaret experimentation and innovation, come see which pieces our industry experts have asked to come back for the SHORT+SWEET Cabaret Gala Showcase. Heard the buzz about a show but missed it in all the hype of the festival? This is your chance to dip back into the best of the best that SHORT+SWEET Cabaret has to offer. A little more sexy, a little more polished but just as SHORT+SWEET.
In between his international tours, he also provides keynote presentations, interactive workshops, and other services that can make your events and conferences more memorable and amazing.
When we say revised, don't worry. It will still be silly. It will still be glittery. It will definitely still be full of dancing.
