Tell us about your role at the Byron Community Centre? My role as a duty officer with the Byron Theatre is a varied and exciting role that involves running the front of house & managing the theatre event on the night. Duties include liaising with promoters, performers, staff and volunteers & making sure patrons go home happy.

What’s the most inspiring part of your job? I love working in my position as it connects me with our local performers in the Shire as well as interstate & international performers. 

I love my community because… I feel the arts community is very important as it connects community through all the wonderful facets of performing arts.
