Sally Richardson is fascinated by the re-creation and telling of stories. Drawing inspiration from contemporary life, history, visual artists, Australian stories and shared experiences, her company Steamworks Arts Productions creates meaningful performances which speak to diverse audiences.
Sally's process is driven by collaboration and she often involves all key artists in creative research and the construction of the narrative. Her ability to direct large-scale hybrid performances involving physical theatre, dance, music, circus, and puppetry with multiple choreographers is well known.
Steamworks initiates, promotes and supports the development of Australian creative talent. They seek to generate and tour their productions regionally, nationally and internationally. 2010 will see the company's 10th anniversary.
