Congratulations Ms Mandy Ellison!
At this year's Drama Victoria Annual Conference, Mrs Ellison was inducted into the MAMA Legends - a collection of Drama teachers who have had more than 30 years of Drama teaching under their belt.
The MAMA (Memories And Memorials Archive) Project is a Drama Australia initiative that involves a program of interviews with Drama and Theatre educators of distinction and wisdom who have thirty or more years of experience in their field. We affectionately refer to our MAMA interviewees as our ‘legends’.
Drama Victoria acknowledge and thank our legends. Their wisdom, passion, resilience and commitment to Drama education is clear in their interviews and will hopefully serve to inspire emerging Drama teachers.
Congratulations, Ms Ellison!
