Dianne Toulson, the Executive Director of St Kilda’s Theatre Works, has announced that she will step down in 2026.
Toulson’s eight-year tenure at the producing and presenting theatre has been defined by major achievements across artistic programming, organisational strategy, and precinct development.
She joined Theatre Works at a time when the organisation faced significant structural and financial challenges and the possibility of closure was very real. Under her leadership, Theatre Works not only recovered but rebuilt its foundations and emerged stronger, more ambitious and more deeply connected to its artistic community.
