We’re delighted to welcome Dr Sharon Hogan to the JUTE team, delivering Regional Arts Services Network (RASN) support to artists and arts workers across regional Queensland.
Based on Gubbi Gubbi Country, Gympie, Sharon is a theatree maker, arts leader, educator and researcher with extensive experience in professional and regional theatre, community-led performance and arts development.
As Artistic Director of Perseverance Street Theatre Company, she creates original work, develops artists and builds partnerships across regional Queensland.
In 2025, Sharon was recognised as one of Queensland’s leading theatre directors through a Matilda Award nomination. Her practice spans directing, touring, mentoring, professional development, audience engagement and organisational capacity building. Passionate about supporting artists, Sharon brings practical industry knowledge, strong networks and a commitment to sustainable careers and a thriving, connected regional theatre sector.
An active member of the DARTS cohort, Sharon is no stranger to JUTE; she has been involved in DARTS initiatives since 2024, and brings a strong understanding of the opportunities and challenges facing regional theatre makers.
Through RASN, Sharon will draw on her experience in directing, touring, and organisational capacity building to support artists, arts workers, and their communities. Theatre makers and artists can now directly book a meeting with Sharon from Monday to Wednesday, here.
