Louise Bezzina brims over with enthusiasm as she speaks about the upcoming Brisbane Festival, her third as Artistic Director and her most ambitious to date. ‘Every year you want to grow, highlighting what you think is important and defining the sort of festival you want to create, and we have done that this year,’ she said.
Bezzina very much believes that the role of an international festival is to act as a springboard for presenting our stories to the rest of the world, at the same time being truly inclusive and community focused.
