Downstage dares to be different. And we appreciate your input!









Opening its doors twice a year to proposals from NZ theatre-makers, independent producers and arts and cultural organisations, Downstage will encourage producing partnerships between a variety of artists and cultures and encourage new collaborations across artform practice, as well as source new season scripts and productions from NZ and overseas, and call for fresh interpretations of extant works.

The intention is to showcase the very best and latest in New Zealand theatre-making.

Downstage is not proposing to reinvent the wheel but to enrich what already exists. The company’s evolution, therefore, becomes a process of looking at the familiar in new ways. It builds on strengths and motivates others to contribute to that realisation.

Therefore Downstage Theatre invites you to a presentation of the new company vision.
