About Us
Since 2007 Eagles Nest Theatre has performed in Victoria, across Australia and overseas. We run one of the biggest Theatre Education programs in Victoria, have enjoyed the support of the Department of Education and Training and currently offer workshops/performances for 10-15 texts to over 100 schools each year.
Artistic Director's Address
Through innovation and collaboration, Eagles Nest transformed Theatre-in-Education over the last twenty years. More than 30% of Victorian schools now book with us each year.
In 2024/25 we began tailoring existing programs for individual schools and rolled out a whole series of new concepts. Our recent partnership with Adland Tours.also allowed us to help socio-economically disadvantaged schools to access our work. New programs included: four creative writing workshops for the VCE Key Frameworks for Ideas, public performances and workshops at the Malthouse, and culturally informed and led Indigenous programs.
What's on in 2026
In 2026 these initiatives will continue and there is more to come. 1-5 day in-school immersive programs: for text studies, creative writing and learning about aboriginal culture are now available as well as Curated school camps in Australia and overseas.
• Get out "on country" to study Aboriginal culture in the community.
• Travel to South America (Peru, the Galapagos Islands or Patagonia) to learn about culture, language, environment and natural science.
• Head to South East Asia to dive into wellbeing, creative and mindfulness programs.
