Belvoir’s Sue Donnelly recognises that her recent movement sideways into the newly created position of Executive Producer is a little out of the ordinary.
‘I think that’s how the arts has to work and it has to work that way because of scant resources and also, it just [reflects] the creativity that is inherent in working in an arts organisation. When I’ve been employing people I always look to obviously their skills, but also their enthusiasm, their commitment, their passion for theatre. Because to have the skills is very important, but you’ve got to have all those other elements as well these days because it’s hard working in the arts, no doubt about it,’ she said.
