Sydney Theatre Company has faced scandal and budget pressures. But why has their artistic director resigned a year early?

Award-winning artistic director Kip Williams has resigned from the Sydney Theatre Company after eight years at the helm.

"When I started as artistic director, one of my goals was to increase the space and opportunity for Australian stories on our stages. I couldn't be prouder that two-thirds of the shows I have programmed during my tenure have been original works and adaptations by Australian writers.

"It became quite clear to me that the responsibility of programming 2026 would be too great with that time away. It's been a really big decision given how long I've been with the company and what the company means to me," he said.Williams started working with STC in 2011 as an assistant director on Andrew Upton's adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov's The White Guard, shortly after his graduation from the National Institute of Dramatic Arts in 2010.

"Kip has put great focus on Australian writing, championing new voices, and has realised his goal of gender parity for women writers and directors across every season," she said. "He will leave a legacy of initiatives which support new works and artist development and a company at the forefront of presenting Australian theatrical works of scale."that seven roles in administration and operations have been tapped for redundancy as the company struggles with budget pressures.
