Friends of Blue Roo

Friends of Blue Roo is a sponsorship and donor group supporting Blue Roo Theatre Company’s mission to increase community access to the performing arts, develop artists with disabilities, and promote inclusive arts.

Friends of Blue Roo brings together individuals, businesses, and organisations who value creativity, inclusion, and social impact. They provide financial, in-kind, and advocacy support for our productions, Pathways to Performance programs, mentored leadership, employment for emerging artists and arts workers, and community outreach — including our Pass It On campaign for families unable to afford tickets.

When people with disability are active in their communities — as performers, leaders, and workers — it strengthens social bonds, challenges perceptions, and brings lasting economic and cultural benefits.

Join us. Become a Friend of Blue Roo and help people with disability be seen, heard, and valued.

ABOUT OUR FRIENDS

OUR FRIENDS & SUPPORTERS

What do Friends of Blue Roo do?

The Friends of Blue Roo advocate for and financially support people with disability to be publicly seen and heard, challenging common community perceptions of ability and reducing the harmful effects of social isolation.

Your advocacy will collectively champion the idea that every individual, regardless of ability, has a vital role in shaping our cultural and economic communities.

Your financial support will directly help production costs, provide access and participation opportunities in the performing arts, create and sustain mentored performing arts leadership pathways and support employment opportunities for emerging actors, producers, directors, stage managers, sound technicians and vodcasters with disability.

Join us to empower people with disability to access and shine on stage and in public spaces, boost their creative leadership skills and advance their health, wellbeing and confidence.
