The Debate Moves South ...

Here at 7-ON we love hearing about other coalitions and groups of artists 'doing it for themselves'. Check out the Australian Women Directors' Alliance, a recently formed non-profit coalition of professional women directors and theatre makers. There's some interesting, probing and provocative discussion on their blog about the participation and artistic practices of female directors, playwrights and performance-makers—and their under-representation on Melbourne's better-funded stages.

You can contact the AWDA here, or find them on Facebook.
