VOCAL COACHING

David Butler Studio is a professional and nurturing environment with 18 years private coaching experience; 11 of which are specialised in voice.

Antipodes Theatre Company (ATC) seeks to provide a collaborative and diverse environment for producing independent theatre in Melbourne. Programming includes: full-length plays and musicals, the ATC Drama Club, year-round workshops for a variety of artists, and supporting new work through our Winter Development Retreat and Ricochet Free Reading Series.

Our aim is to produce challenging and enlightening work that embraces duality within the human condition. Work that looks at situations from a unique angle or exposes what it is like to step into someone else’s shoes. ATC was founded by New York City transplants, who currently find themselves as close to the antipode of that location as they are ever likely to be.

Finally, ATC strives for inclusive hiring practices through a commitment to at least 50% of all roles – on stage and off – filled by women, ethnically diverse artists, people with disabilities, trans and non-binary people, seniors, or other members of historically or culturally marginalized communities who are not well represented on stage.
