Erth Visual and Physical will bring their Prehistoric World: 2022 Regional Tour to Taree to showcase breathtaking puppets which will spark the imagination of children and adults alike.
Flipside Dance will bring their professional dance performance, Awkward, to Taree and Tuncurry while Edward the Emu will cater for children with a feast for the eyes from Monkey Baa Theatre for Young People.
The shows will be presented later this year and early next year.
Member for Myall Lakes, Stephen Bromhead and Minister for the Arts, Don Harwin said the funding through the NSW government's Regional Arts Touring round is a real boost for artists and audiences. It was bolstered through additional funding from the NSW Government's Rescue and Restart package to support the recovery of the arts and cultural sector.
"We are investing in our talented arts and cultural organisations and making their touring ambitions a reality, and improving access to high quality and diverse experiences for regional audiences." Mr Harwin said.
