Playwriting Australia has announced that it has made its remaining staff redundant, and has put its reserves into trust so that a review can be conducted and something else can rise from these ashes. "Playwriting Australia is pleased to ... pass the microphone and leave space for something different". You can read their announcement on their website here.
We are reeling. "Redundant" Artistic Director and CEO Lachlan Philpott assumed that position less than a year ago. Lachlan has extensive experience of national and international play development, and was the first playwright ever to lead a national Australian play development organisation. We were thrilled. We were excited by his writer-centred vision. We send him all our love and support.
We are also raising questions.
