The Lieder Theatre Company is seeking performers, backstage crew, lighting and AV technicians, and creatives for our upcoming production of Mighty Playwrights 2026, performed at the Lieder Theatre in September. Directed by Blake Selmes.

SUMMARY

Mighty Playwrights is an annual program, working in collaboration with Goulburn Mulwaree Library and the region's primary schools to bring the joy of writing and story telling to the next generation of young people. 

In 2026, 6 young writers are working at Goulburn Mulwaree Library to create 6 original short plays. The Lieder Theatre Company will transform each play into a full-scale stage production, all to be performed in one night of theatre.
