Melting Pot Theatre

Melting Pot Theatre

Melting Pot Theatre is a sub-committee of the Bundanoon Community Association and we are a
not-for-profit company, with all ticket sales going back to the community. The company
endevours to bring original works and adaptation to the stage on a regular basis. Our theatre
group is totally inclusive. We invite all locals to write, act, direct or learn theatre craft. Our
rehearsal space is a safe place where you will be supported and encouraged by experienced
industry professionals. The company is open to all, there is no membership fee.
MPT is a busy adult theatre company. Onstage, in our rehearsal space and in our personal
workshops we live and breath theatre. Members of the company write, direct, make sets, props,
costumes, and soundscapes. Many of our company come from theatrical and design
backgrounds. We do creative work on a serious scale, always pushing boundaries, always
looking for new ways to tell a story. Our shows have attracted popular and critical acclaim.
Major Production: Melting Pot Theatre runs a variety of full-length plays, and one-act plays,
throughout the year. These events are fully rehearsed and directed. Typically we perform two
major productions per year. The company is dedicated to producing works of ambition and
scale. We create and share stories with artists and audiences that provide opportunities for
reflection, revelation and joy.
To encourage new actors, writers and directors, we run a program called Crash Test Drama.
It’s an evening of six original script-in-hand ten minute plays. It’s cast on the day, with an early
evening (that night!) performance. Crash Test Drama is a formatted, internationally recognised
formula and has some guidelines. Click here to download Guidelines and Protocols
Throughout the year Melting Pot Theatre endeavours to run several workshops, giving
everyone the opportunity to hone their skills in whatever area they choose. If this theatre group
appeals to you, then, please, come and join us. Everyone is welcome. Please contact our
convenor for more details about events.
