The Trustee For The Ron And Margaret Dobell Foundation

The aim of the foundation is principally to provide funds to support eh performing arts. Our focus is specifically on developing emerging talent in music theatre and cabaret and the development of new performing arts audiences. We are in constant contact with groups like the VCA and the arts centre ensuring that our funds are being used to meet our charities goals. With the VCA and the Melbourne cabaret festival we contribute advice at a policy and strategic level as well as a sounding board for new ideas. As evidence of the effectiveness of the program many of the graduates of the program are now performing in major shows and many are writing sand performing in their own shows.
