A producer with over 20 years’ experience, Kylie has supported the creation of new work across a wide range of artforms, from children’s films to award-winning Australian operas and contemporary performance. Passionate about helping artists extend their practice and realise ambitious new projects, she has spent the past eight years playing a key role in catalysing multidisciplinary performance at Chamber Made.
“I’m delighted to be joining Lucy Guerin Inc at such an exciting moment in the company’s journey. LGI has long played a vital role in Australian contemporary dance through its commitment to artistic rigour, experimentation, and the development of new work. I deeply admire Lucy’s vision and the company’s ongoing investment in artists and ideas, and I’m looking forward to working with the team and broader LGI community to support its next phase.” — Kylie McRae
Kylie joins LGI at an important moment in the company’s evolution. As the company prepares for the premiere of “The Forest” at the Australian Dance Biennale as part of RISING in 2026, it continues to build on a period of artistic ambition, growing national and international engagement, and sustained investment in artists and new work.
Kylie’s appointment marks an exciting new phase for LGI, as the company continues to back ambitious contemporary dance and create the conditions for artists and new work to thrive.
“I’m thrilled to welcome Kylie as Executive Director & co-CEO. Kylie brings a wealth of experience supporting artists to make ambitious new work, alongside a thoughtful, collaborative approach to leadership. She has a deep understanding of contemporary practice and of what it takes to build the conditions in which artists and organisations can thrive. I’m very much looking forward to working together as we shape the next chapter of LGI.” — Lucy Guerin, Artistic Director & co-CEO
Kylie commences in the role on 11 May.
The company also acknowledges the contribution of outgoing Executive Producer & Deputy CEO Ally Harvey, who recently joined Polyglot Theatre, and former Executive Producer & Deputy CEO Brendan O’Connell, who has supported the company in an interim capacity during the recruitment process. LGI thanks both Ally and Brendan for their valued contribution to the organisation and looks forward to welcoming Kylie to the team.
