About Us

pantsguys is a great example of the type of creative combustion that can take place when like-minded, passionate people gather together. Add into the mix their high skill level and their shared vision for what theatre can be, and the combination is very exciting. I applaud their deep commitment and positive artistic contribution.

Our Mission

To empower emerging artists to create innovative contemporary work that provokes, excites and challenges Australian audiences. pantsguys aims to bridge the gap between emerging and established artists in the industry. We want to provide the opportunity and facilities for creatives to work in a professional environment, nurtured and mentored by more experienced practitioners.

 

Our Patron

  

pantsguys Productions has secured the patronage of renowned Australian Theatre Director Craig Ilott.

Craig is best known for directing the award winning Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2006) and for directing and co-creating the even more award winning Smoke and Mirrors (2010). He has come on board to spread the pantsguys word and help us bridge the gap between established and emerging artists in the industry.
