Rohan Browne

  • Director & Founder
  • Stage. Director. Creative Consultant.

Rohan Browne brings more than two decades of professional performance, creative  leadership and arts-education expertise to the heart of Arts Lab Collective. His  career spans major musical theatre productions, national tours, screen work and  creative development across Australia and abroad - but his true impact lies in how  he translates industry experience into tangible outcomes for students, staff and  whole school communities.

Rohan’s teaching and directing practice centres on empowerment through process.  He specialises in helping young performers unlock confidence, clarity and artistic  bravery - whether they’re stepping into drama for the first time or accelerating  towards further arts training. His workshops focus on practical skill-building, self awareness, collaboration and clear creative intention. Students leave with refined  techniques, stronger personal expression and a deeper understanding of the craft  they are engaging with.

For staff and school leadership teams, Rohan provides structured creative  consultancy, offering a bridge between professional arts practice and the unique  needs of educational environments. He supports departments with dramaturgy,  direction, ensemble management, rehearsal frameworks, performance  development and strategic creative planning. His guidance consistently lifts  program quality, enriches school culture and strengthens the confidence of teachers  delivering arts learning.

Across all programs - from incursions to long-form training - Rohan’s approach is  deeply human, highly practical and built on genuine care for the artistic ecosystem  of each school. His mission is simple: to elevate creativity, raise standards, and  ensure every student and staff member leaves with a clearer, stronger sense of  their own artistic potential.
