Ever heard of “big things come in small packageS”?

well, that’s us!

Since 2019, Encounter has firmly built its position in the West Australian theatre landscape as a leader in community collaboration, theatre-making, astute business practice, and equity advocacy.

As well as our creative development and community engagement projects, we’re collaborating with international partners to design professional development and mentoring initiatives that address systemic barriers and create pathways for more artists from diverse backgrounds to bring their work to stages. With your support, we can continue to develop bold stories, expand how we tell stories, support emerging to mid-career artists and producers, and pursue ambitious community engagement activities while strengthening sustainability practice. Our work is impossible without the generous support of partners like you!

Your donation, big or small, will help us to work with diverse performers, writers and designers to create rich, culturally significant stories that speak to the lived experience of contemporary Australia. We invite you to join our community of supporters by making a tax-deductible donation through our ACF Campaign.

If you’d like to make a tax-deductible please contact us on encounter@encountertheatre.com
