Grant Dodwell of Australian Theatre Live
Manage episode 341558303 series 3346391
In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Grant Dodwell, Creative Director of Australian Theatre Live.
How can the experience of the theatre be made more accessible to those in regional communities, lower income or living with a disability? And how do you deliver your solution when it’s excluded from the existing guidelines of funding organisations? In this episode, Tammy chats with Grant Dodwell, multi-Logie Award winner and founder and Creative Director of Australian Theatre Live, about bringing the theatre to the people.
Grant has combined the beauty of the arts with the technological advancements of the digital age to deliver filmed theatre productions through roadshows and streaming channels to those who may not otherwise have the experience. We hear how this innovation didn’t fit with funding designed exclusively for screen or theatre. However, funding boosts during COVID-19 allowed the organisation to broaden their reach and expand their team.
Australian Theatre Live is a unique Not for Profit in their project-based operations, which causes funding challenges because each idea must be researched and pitched before securing financing. In addition, Grant also describes the nuances of philanthropy and how to deliver with integrity and an understanding of donors’ motivations.
