The Biting Dog Theatre Festival
The 2008 Biting Dog Theatre Festival

Season : June 11-20

Festival Director - Sebastien Pasche
Technical Director - Rob Scott
Script by Lally Katz

Now into its second decade, the Biting Dog Theatre Festival will once again see young people take over The Hume Building Society Butter Factory Theatre Wodonga to present a series of unique interpretations based on the same script. This is not like any night you have had in the theatre. You will be treated to up to three 20 minute performances each evening as young artists from across the region’s schools and youth theatres deliver comedy, romance, thrills and drama on a nightly basis.

Building on the template of the festival’s famed ‘neutral script’, this year’s text includes many of the best-loved features of previous scripts including the use of optional lines. To round out each night, we have assembled a panel of highly talented theatre professionals to provide feedback to artists and audiences; whilst behind the scenes there is a series of technical traineeships on offer, a poster design competition and extensive workshop support and resources for participants and teachers.

We invite you to join us in celebrating the imaginations of our young.

“To give students an opportunity to create theatrical work and perform it in a professional setting, amongst peers, is truly a remarkable learning experience.” – Beechworth Secondary College
