Description of Performance | QUE Theatre Inc. was created through a partnership between Queensland Theatre Company, The Empire Theatre and USQ to establish a dynamic and contemporary theatre for young people, by young people. It was launched in 2001 and ran until 2006 offering a wide variety of programs for young people: QUE Fest, QUE Reach, QUE Able, QUE Fiish were the key business of this incorporated organisation that was guided by a Management Committee made up of stakeholders from the partners and USQ Theatre students. QUE Fest was the largest of the projects with annual training days, rehearsals and performance outcome at The Empire Theatre (rehearsals took place across USQ and Empire). |

Public Notes | QUE Able took place over two 10 week 'units' of weekly drama workshops at Spiritus (was Anglicare) at St Luke's church Toowoomba, with intellectually disabled participants. An annual performance outcome was developed and enjoyed by families. This project closed in 2008 and was reincarnated as Butterflies by graduates of USQ Theatre - these graduates continue to work in disability services in Queensland. QUE Fiish was a program for Indigenous youth which aimed to provide indigenous youth from high schools in Toowoomba and the Darling Downs with a range of theatrical skills as well as an opportunity for creative expression in a supportive environment. QUE Reach visited schools in Nanango, Kingaroy and Chinchilla to develop intensive workshops for Drama teachers – upon request. |
