Illuminate: Theatre Making Toolkit
Outback Theatre for Young People have developed a toolkit and associated video documentary, informed by Illuminate Stage 2 in 2013, a celebratory theatre project, engaging young people and their communities from across the Wakool Shire of NSW. Young people were mentored by OTYP artists, in all aspects of the documentary making process. This is the resulting toolkit; an accessible living resource that supports creative learning technologies, and clearly articulates the theatre making process.
This project was made possible through support from Arts NSW, Regional Arts NSW and the Australia Council.

Illuminate presents 'A Town Called Mills Acre'
August 15, 2013 /in Illuminate, News, Past Projects, Uncategorized, Wakool Shire /by Outback Theatre For Young People
[wzslider autoplay="true" info="true"]Outback Theatre for Young People's ILLUMINATE project presents a new Australian play featuring 130 Young people from across the Wakool Shire
Outback Theatre for Young People's Illuminate project is connecting the towns of Barham, Wakool and Moulamein with performances over a three-week period, with a new Australian play entitled, A Town Called Mills Acre. This project is designed to bring everyone from the Wakool Shire together, to show the communities what young people can do and have some fun.
Through collaboration and conversations with local communities and their young people, professional theatre artists Angela Frost and Richie Hallal have developed a play that captures what lies in the heart of the communities of the Wakool Shire. Featuring a core cast of 5 teenagers and an ensemble cast of over 100 students, A Town Called Mills Acre is the young people's gift to their community.
The main character, Shelby McCoy and her family run an irrigation rice farm. Their livelihood comes under pressure due to changes in water access, environmental concerns, and the growing fear of an uncertain future. The McCoys are forced to question their own lifestyle and the very fabric that holds their community together.
This is a heartwarming story of a family paving their way forward through innovation, creativity and courage. Alongside their community they remain resilient, hopeful and connected.
Artistic Director Angela Frost says "This play presents a message of hope, and a celebratory presentation by the young people of the Wakool Shire and the bush and the rivers that are our lifeblood."
Richie Hallal foresees that "This play will be an unforgettable experience, don't miss it".

Opportunity of Everything
February 18, 2013 /in Illuminate, News, Uncategorized, Wakool Shire /by Outback Theatre For Young People
Opportunity of Everything from Outback Theatre for Young People on Vimeo.
Last year brought some very special achievements for us as a company however nothing is as special as the communities we get to work with and the people we meet. This documentary, "Opportunity of Everything" gives a unique insight to four exceptional young people from Mallan Public School, which closed it's doors for good last year.
This film is a story of community, strength and resilience.
The short film, which a part of our Illuminate project based in the Wakool Shire, was directed by Artistic Director, Ange Frost and shot and produced by our guest artist, Richie Hallal.
"Opportunity of Everything is the final testament from Mallan Public School students. We were privileged enough to be invited to work with Mallan Public School in its final weeks before closure, and we soon realised a film would be the most fitting art-form to celebrate this wonderful community and capture the school for the last time, " said Richie.
"This film is a final tour of Mallan Public School. It was launched at presentation night to an audience of families, Principals, Government Officials and past students. 'Opportunity of Everything' represents the successes and joys of the school and the hopes of what the future may hold."

What is Illuminate?
October 31, 2012 /in Illuminate, Past Projects, Uncategorized /by Outback Theatre For Young People
Illuminate is a celebratory theatre project designed to bring young people together from the isolated townships of the Wakool Shire of NSW. This project will work with participants to create art that reflects the strengths, and encourages the resilience, of the communities they belong to. Each two-week intensive will create its own distinct outcome, but also generate ideas, themes and frameworks for a large-scale visual theatre work, which will be produced at the end of the second stage in 2013; and will see each community feeding into one performance outcome that will tour the communities in the Shire.

Outback Theatre for Young People's Illuminate is a celebratory theatre project designed to bring young people together from the isolated townships of the Wakool Shire of NSW.
Resilience has become a key theme in rural communities all over Australia, and the Wakool Shire is no exception. The Wakool Shire stretches across 7550 square km in South West NSW with 4300 residents spread across 10 small villages and many farming properties. The shire has been hit successively by drought, flood and the closure of industry due to forestry legislation. The six schools participating in 'Illuminate' are extremely small.
This project will work with participants to create art that reflects the strengths, and encourages the resilience, of the communities they belong to. We will explore the strengths and virtues of people in their own communities and of the young people themselves. We will express personal and collective storytelling using the themes of courage, identity, history, belonging, community, hope, home and happiness as part of the overarching theme of resilience. This theme will be explored through skills-based program in storytelling, drama, shadow puppetry, and digital communications.
Each two-week intensive will create its own distinct outcome, but also generate ideas, themes and frameworks for a large-scale visual theatre work, which will be produced at the end of the second stage in 2013; and will see each community feeding into one performance outcome that will tour the communities in the Shire.
