BOARD OF MANAGEMENT
Michelle Kotevski (Chair)
Michelle trained as an actor before she realised she was much better at
organising everyone else. Since 2006 Michelle has been working with national
arts and social change company Big hART Inc, Queen Street Studio, the
William Buckland Foundation and has established Artel International with
Gemma Pepper. She is the producer of the award-winning project and floating
multi media installation JUNK THEORY (Big hART) for 2007 Sydney Festival
and the 2008 Adelaide Bank Festival of the Arts. Her current passions
include Queen Street Studio and Macedonian pop stars.
In a previous life she worked with Shopfront Theatre for Young People,
Vinoshito Theatre, Theatre Hyrdra, One Extra Dance, Carnivale Festival and Xtext Magazine. Thinking bureaucracy could be the high point of artistic
achievement – she spent 5 years learning about funding, politics and
diplomacy at the Australia Council for the Arts with the Theatre and
Community Cultural Development Boards.
Erin Morrissey (Secretary)
Erin holds a BA in Theatre Arts from the University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC) and a Graduate Diploma in Directing from the National Institute of Dramatic Arts (NIDA). She has worked in the Arts for over 15 years and currently produces large scale outdoor events. She has been on the board of Queen Street Studio since the beginning and is continually inspired by the space and the people who contribute their time, love and creative energy to feeding and nurturing the vision of Queen Street.
Rhys Morris (Public Officer)
Rhys owns and operates Righteye Creative, a Sydney design company which has been a major supporter of Queen Street Studio since its inception. Rhys has a BA in Visual Communication and Design from Wellington, Aotearoa/NZ. Righteye carries out low cost and volunteer work for the theatre and independant art communities wherever possible and has proudly donated to Queen Street Studio its time and resources on marketing, design, internet content and now board membership.
Skye Nevin (Treasurer)
Skye attended acting classes through her youth and though no longer
performing she still continues to ham it up on a regular basis. She has
run her own bookkeeping business for the last 15 years with a client base
predominantly in the music industry. Her clients have included music
producer/mixer management, recording studios and independent record labels
but for the last few years she has worked primarily for an artist
management company and boutique record label that are fortunate to
represent some of Australia’s most successful music artists.
Skye has also
recently discovered a new artistic release and is in the process of
writing her first novel. She is delighted to be a fledgling supporter of Queen Street Studio and is excited by the space and the innovative niche it
has fostered for the Sydney artistic community.
Lex Lindsay (Extraordinary Member)
Lex is the General Manager of Queer Screen. He has also worked as an
administrator, programmer, producer and publicist for companies including: The
Adelaide Feast Festival, Griffin Theatre Company/Stables Theatre and Tangent
Productions. Lex’s works include the one-man-shows Swallowing Geography and Armour/Amour, and the film Tempting Fate. Commissions include the short plays Prime Real Estate and Safety’ as well as musical scores for theatre, dance and film.
