In a separate project, Arts Queensland is partnering with the Australia Council on a joint initiative External Link to produce and manage selected Queensland theatre and dance groups.

The partnership between Arts Queensland and the Australia Council for the Arts will make it easier for Queensland’s theatre and dance groups to present and tour their work locally, nationally and internationally over the next four years.

The State Government and the Australia Council will provide joint funding of $300,000 through the Managing and Producing Services (MAPS) partnership to create a supportive structure for theatre and dance groups from 2008 – 2011.

With international tours and co-productions on the increase, the aim is to set up an effective model that provides critical infrastructure to arts groups who may not have the resources or administrative structure to tour a production on their own.

Following a public call for proposals, Brisbane’s Metro Arts, in partnership with Brisbane Powerhouse, was successful in its application to set up management, administrative and marketing support to some of our state’s most dynamic arts companies. Metro Arts and the Powerhouse will deliver essential practical services that include contract negotiation, tour management and technical support.
