EOIs and Project Proposals for MUST's 2025 Season

All submissions due Monday November 4th at Midnight (but earlier applications are encouraged!)
Before submitting an EOI or Project Proposal, you must have a meeting with MUST Artistic Director Yvonne Virsik to discus your ideas. Please direct all questions and applications to Yvonne: yvonne.virsik@monash.edu
Our aims for 2025:
In 2024 MUST has continued a number of exciting initiatives, and explored a wide range of contents and styles. Students have blown us away with their inspiring ideas and their care for our wider community. It’s been a time of continuing challenges, but also of great performances and fun!
Looking to 2025 and beyond, MUST faces various challenges and with staffing support not forthcoming, we have been directed to cut back our program. We still want to challenge ourselves with bold new artistic expression, to enjoy making great entertainment & learning together and to program diverse work that gives many opportunities for engagement. With less shows, savvy programming will be key.

How do I put forward an idea?
There are a few different types of applications that you can make. You can apply for artistic leadership of projects and positions that we would like to go ahead, via an Expression of Interest, or EOI.
You can also bring your own ideas to us via a Project Proposal.
Pre-planned 2025 Projects and Positions available:
- Creative Producer(s) - MUST Season Launch Party (EOIs)
- Interns to the Technical Manger and Artistic Director (EOIs sought for Formal MSA process)
- Interns at Monash Performing Arts Centre (Programming, Producing & Marketing and Tech)
- MUST Access and Inclusion Officer(s) (EOIs)
- MUST Community/Social Officers (EOIs)
- MUST Marketing Officer(s) (EOIs)

Proposing a Project:
If you have an idea of a project you want to propose, please chat with Yvonne about what you're thinking BEFORE submitting a project proposal. This proposal should address and consider the criteria outlined in the document linked below, detailing your ideas for what you want to stage, why and how you plan to do it.
As well as artistic elements and innovation, we place strong emphasis on leadership and communication, management, and marketing. We need to know from you that you are committed to managing your project well and helping your team have a great experience!
