The Street Ahead
2020. Deep in the middle of the pandemic supporters responded to our call for donations to The Street Ahead for the commissioning of Australian artists and the making of new work right here in Canberra in a time of crisis for the sector.
Our Commissions
Investing in the artistic vitality of Canberra and theatre-making that expresses its distinct identity, The Street develops and commissions many of the productions seen on our stage. Encouraging and supporting artists to make ambitious new works, we provide frameworks that take an idea to the stage. Our Street supporters are helping us to invest the time and resources needed to breathe life into new stories.
Championing new voices and works, we're excited to share these past and upcoming Street original productions.

The Street welcomes corporate giving as well as the opportunity to develop partnerships.

With the generosity of partners and sponsors, we can work together to connect more people and create changes through rich and diverse theatre-making that reflect the world we are living in now.
