About the organisation
Sensorium Theatre is a unique arts organisation, based in WA whose mission is to make transformational, multi-sensory theatre for children with disabilities including those with complex support needs and those on the autism spectrum.

For the past 10 years, we have performed to thousands of children with disabilities, their parents and carers, both here in WA and nationally at venues such as the Sydney Opera House and internationally in New York City and Singapore. Our reputation for excellence is recognised and we have achieved a sustainable financial position with triennial organisational funding from the WA State Government, a number of long term relationships with philanthropists and diversified performance and training income.Following a comprehensive stakeholder consultation last year and the completion of an ambitious 5 year plan this is a very exciting time to join this very bespoke small company.
