Melbourne Theatre Company is the oldest professional theatre company in Australia, producing over 750 plays and musicals since 1953. Founded as the Union Theatre Repertory Company, MTC focused on plays until recently.
MTC prides itself on it’s educational programs for artists starting out, as well as the amount of jobs it provides for mid-career artists. For ways that MTC supports the arts community, and therefore might support you go to http://www.mtc.com.au/about/template.aspx?id=7478. This program is what allowed Mathew Frank to become a name in music directing.
Every year as well as over 20 debut actors, MTC employs seasoned professionals recognisable from Australian theatre, TV and movies (as
well as the world famous, including Geoffrey Rush), to help mentor the actors performing with them.
Hopefully MTC will continue to support artists on and off the stage for many years to come.
