Giving Philosophy

The Foundation supports Australian performing arts by providing funding to individuals and organisations for projects that promote and develop drama, theatre, and related performing arts. It values new Australian works and playwrights, as evidenced by its annual Rodney Seaborn Playwrights Award, and also provides venue support by offering rent-free or reduced-rent access to theatre spaces for the Griffin Theatre Company.

Wealth Source:The Foundation was established and funded by Dr Rodney Seaborn AO OBE, a private philanthropist and patron of the arts. It operates as a charitable trust with its wealth originating from private philanthropy rather than corporate or government sources.

Tips for Applicants

Applications should focus on supporting Australian performing arts, particularly new Australian plays and theatre projects. The Foundation has a particular interest in supporting playwrights and organisations that align with its mission of promoting Australian drama and theatre. Given its NSW base and history with Griffin Theatre Company, applicants should demonstrate a connection to Australian theatre and new work development.
