Why this petition matters

Started by Leane Maddren

Panorama Theatre Company are a not for profit organisation with a proud 43 year history of delighting audiences whilst supporting young people to explore the medium of theatre as a vehicle for personal development, friendship or as a potential career.

Our original charter to cater for 14 to 22 year olds, has been expanded to acknowledge that learning and growth is supported by the mentorship of experienced theatre people. As such, the casting of our shows will sometimes include both older and younger members than our original brief, according to the show and the production value we are seeking to achieve.

Due to the challenges the COVID19 pandemic has created, Panorama have experienced significant financial hardship and just when they are struggling to recover and from this, the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council have made the decision not to allow them to continue to lease the space they have been using to store and create sets, costumes and props for the past 15+ years.  

We are asking you to sign this petition imploring Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to support Panorama Theatre Company with securing a new storage facility immediately.  Without this support, Panorama is facing imminent closure which would be a devastating outcome for community theatre and the youth of the Mornington Peninsula.
