In 2022, the Tantrum Residency (in partnership with Shopfront Arts and Critical Stages Touring) is supporting four local emerging artists to create their own new work and build professional connections to help them develop sustainable careers in the arts.

From January- April 2022, Tantrum is providing these selected artist/teams with space and the opportunity to forge professional connections around the creative development of their own new performance work. We are also matching these selected artist/teams with an industry mentor, providing invaluable feedback and guidance to the selected artist/teams. Past Tantrum Residency mentors have included Mish Grigor, Malcolm Whittaker, Yumi Umiumare, Jodee Mundy and Erth Visual & Physical.

After 4 months of development, the resident artists will present aspects of their new works to the public in a combined season of work-in-progress ‘sharings’ at Tantrum’s studio in Merewether.

Applications for the Tantrum Residency are currently closed.
