Under the leadership of Artistic Director Tom Gutteridge, Black Swan has maintained a strong commitment to commissioning new work and in recent years has premiered exciting new plays such as Ian Wilding's The Carnivores and Neil Gladwin's Red Dog. Black Swan Theatre Company is the designated Resident Company for Perth’s New Performing Arts Venue, to be completed in 2009.
