Yirra Yaakin Metro Writers’ Group

Yirra Yaakin Metro Writers' Group

Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company is committed to sharing stories with our community, created by our community, through theatre.

 

Our Metro Writers’ Group is a supportive environment in which local, emerging Aboriginal playwrights are provided with dramaturgy and training to learn and develop their script-writing skills.

The aim of this program is for Yirra Yaakin to produce high quality works through a vigorous selection process and create pathways for our writers to ultimately have their works presented on stage.
