Victoria Playhouse’ Board of Directors are proud to announce the organisation’s next chapter with a new co-leadership model, as Artistic Director Johanna Nutter is joined by Monelli Rahmatian as Managing Director. An Iranian born artist who exudes joy, Monelli brings a wealth of administrative experience and community spirit to the role. In her own words;
“I am incredibly excited and grateful for this opportunity to be the Managing Director of Victoria Playhouse! I adore the world of performing arts and have had the pleasure of working as a Persian Dance specialist on the Island for the last three years. I have a passion for building, supporting and maintaining community, and I look forward to meeting you all at the Playhouse this summer!”
“Monelli’s passion and dedication for the arts, nature, and personal development is beautiful to witness” recounts Johanna Nutter; “Prior to moving to the Island, Monelli worked in the corporate world for 13 years, ending that career as an HR Manager in Leadership & Development. She brings with her a unique blend of corporate and creative experience to support her as she enters the not-for-profit arts sector. I’m delighted to see our teamwork already flourishing and looking forward to watching the Playhouse thrive as a result.”
Board President Darcy Gorman had this to say, “Her positive attitude is outstanding and we know she will be at home in our theatre. The excitement keeps building at Victoria Playhouse!”
