The annual NSW Drama Festival on pause

This year we are pausing the annual Arts Unit Drama Festival. We are currently undergoing a consultation to gather information on what schools most need to support access to drama opportunities for students and teachers. We will use this data to plan drama programs and opportunities that The Arts Unit provides in the future.

If you are a public school teacher and wish to provide your voice, please complete the survey by 27 September 2024.

 

For details on Area Drama Festivals please visit the drama festivals page.

 

All Arts Units programs are inclusive. If support is required to participate in The Arts Unit Drama Ensembles Festival, please email drama.artsunit@det.nsw.edu.au so we can assist.
