CRAM’s creative innovators set to take centre stage

Mahalia Tanner / INDAILY

“The co-founders of independent South Australian arts company CRAM Collective are taking bold steps to transition from emerging to professional theatre-makers thanks to the Helpmann Academy Creative Innovator Program.”

“At an event at held at Pridham Hall on October 13, CRAM was awarded $20,000 in seed funding, plus an ongoing mentorship from State Theatre Company South Australia and an incubator space at Flinders University’s New Venture Institute, after the panel of judges deemed their professional pitch the most impressive.”

 

Something Big is about to happen: inreview

“Fledgling Adelaide theatre company CRAM Collective is set to take to the stage with its second production – the world premiere of an Australian play in which three friends come together to relive the events of a dinner party that changed their lives.”

“The play looks at crises and how we process and adapt in moments of crisis and trauma, and I think we’ve all kind of experienced some level of that in the past couple of years with COVID and how our lives have changed.”

 

CRAMming it all in!

Empire Times

“Connor, Ren, Aarod and Melissa are talented and hard-working humans that many current Creative Arts students will recognise. The dedicated group of actors, filmmakers, writers and directors founded CRAM Collective before some of them have even put their graduation caps on! Lucky for our readers who may be staring into the piercing eyes of graduation with fear and self-doubt, the CRAM team has kindly shared their story to inspire us all.”

“Nine local creative businesses are set to receive a substantial boost through the second iteration of the Helpmann Academy Creative Innovator Program, which aims to foster new entrepreneurial talent.”

“Over eight months, 13 participants across nine different projects/businesses will be provided with $2000 in seed funding, matched one-on-one mentoring from an established arts practitioner, access to workshops and masterclasses delivered by leading business professionals, contact with a pool of industry experts and business advisors, access to a co-working workspace, and networking and pitching opportunities.”

 

Defying despair: The challenges facing emerging theatre-makers

Gianluca Noble / INREVIEW

“It shouldn’t be about competition, and instead we can all achieve so much more when we work and learn together. In terms of audiences, it’s about getting out and supporting the artists. Ticket sales ensure a future for the piece, and mean that emerging companies, who quite often produce their own work, are able to focus on the art.”
