The Substation/​ Artist/​Urban Theatre Projects/

Urban Theatre Projects is leading a not so quiet revolution of art that is socially responsive, inclusive and that reflects the diverse nation we live in. Urban Theatre Projects is a unique commissioning and producing organisation. They make long-term investments in collaborations with artists and/or communities from outside the dominant culture to give from to extraordinary ideas. They never do this alone, working with an exceptional set of partners to co-produce a year-round program of performance, dance, visual art, learning and community-led projects, unlike anything you have seen before.

Their curatorial model ensures projects are self-determined by artists and/or communities, challenging the dominant methodology of the lead Artistic Director to give rise to truly artist/community led projects. They lead from the lands of the Darug people and acknowledge that sovereignty has never been ceded.
