Want to direct a theatre production in 2025? We’d love to hear from you!
Wellington Repertory Theatre (WRT) produces four shows each year. We look to create opportunities for a diverse range of actors and crew on and off stage – and of course, to have a great deal of fun while doing it! The shows we produce are diverse in nature, including musicals, drama, comedy and a bit of satire.
WRT is Wellington’s oldest community theatre group. No-one is paid, yet the quality of productions is strong, with Directors encouraged to use their creativity in applying their own ideas and interpretations to a script (although WRT, as producer, retains approval rights!)
We’re now looking for submissions to complete our 2025 season.
At WRT, we do our best to find the right people to support you – and welcome people that you want to work with. We are indeed lucky that in Wellington the level of collaboration and commitment to theatre is strong. We have clear expectations of you as a Director, which we’re happy to talk through with you, and also to provide the right level of support to assist where it’s needed.
