Echoes in Draft is a table-read-driven creative development program by blue joy theatre co. designed to amplify emerging voices and in-progress works across performance and theatre. Built on the belief that storytelling begins long before the spotlight, this program offers writers, performers, and creatives a space to breathe life into scripts by hearing them aloud – raw, evolving, and full of potential. This is where dialogue finds its rhythm, characters start to pulse, and narratives echo with the truth of collaboration.

New Beginnings is a creative development initiative presented by blue joy theatre co. It champions BIPOC-led storytelling and fosters collaboration between BIPOC and non-BIPOC creatives. On May 4th 2025 at Midland Junction Arts Centre, you will witness two new scripts exploring love, identity, and relationships till we meet again and better late, than never, written by lead creative Mohammed Ayo Busari, under direction from emerging artist Zoe Garciano. This project has recieved writing mentorship from Mararo Wangai, and directing mentorship from Gita Bezard. Thanks to Propel Youth Arts WA for supporting New Beginnings.
