For Artists: Career Strategy & Industry Support

Feeling stuck? Ready for a shift? Just need clarity on your next move?

I offer bespoke one-on-one sessions designed to support emerging and early-career artists — especially those navigating indie or non-traditional pathways.

These sessions can help if you’re:

  • Refining your CV or headshot
  • Applying to acting agents
  • Figuring out how to talk about your portfolio
  • Planning your next steps in theatre (with insight into Sydney’s indie and professional sectors)
  • Preparing applications (residencies, development opportunities — not grants)
  • Working through imposter syndrome, comparison, or burnout
  • Learning to network in a way that feels natural

If any of that resonates, this space is for you.

I’ve worked as an actor, director (assistant/associate), and producer across independent and mainstage contexts in Sydney. I also run an indie company that’s supported over 160 artists. I know what it’s like to juggle roles, chase opportunities, and build a career with limited resources — and I’d love to help you feel more confident in that process.

💸 Cost

$45 AUD for 45 minutes

📍 Where & What

Sessions are held via Google Meet unless otherwise arranged.

 🎭 Assistant Directing: My Tips & Tricks

A practical and personal guide to my favourite role in the theatre!

🗓️ October 2025
🌐 Platform: Online
🕒 Format: 90-minute unrecorded Q&A session
🎯 Audience: Aspiring ADs, early-career theatre-makers, freelance directors
🎟️ Flat Fee: $30

What is an Assistant Director, anyway?

In this honest and informal session, Tiffany Wong shares her journey into professional AD roles across Australia’s mainstages — from Bell Shakespeare to Sydney Theatre Company to Ensemble — and reflects on what the role actually demands.

It’s part reflection, part practical guidance, part reality check — and all open for questions.

Come along for:
✔️ Real talk on how Tiffany got the gigs (and what didn’t work)
✔️ A behind-the-scenes look at what the job actually involves
✔️ A space to ask your own questions — from protocol to panic moments

Bring your questions, your doubts, and your own weird AD stories.
No jargon. No judgment. Just the truth about this mysterious job.
