Guy Boyce
Board Member / Barking Gecko Theatre
Guy Boyce is a professional arts manager.
He has been chair of CircuitWest, the performing arts presenter association of Western Australia, since October 2011. Through his leadership of CircuitWest the presentation of literary events is becoming a core part of the offering of the performing arts presenter circuit.
In his former role as artistic director and chief executive of Mandurah Performing Arts Centre (2010-2020), Mr Boyce expanded its program and profile in WA through applying its vision to become a leading ‘centre for the arts’ in Australia. This vision has enabled ManPAC to develop literary events as a core part of its offering through key partnerships with Mandurah Libraries and Writing WA. In 2015, this saw ManPAC present the pilot Writers on the Road program with the Pyjama Party and A Glass of Wine and a Good Book. In 2017, ManPAC presented the first Sydney Writers Festival Live and Local program in WA with Writing WA support.
As director of the Christchurch Arts Festival from 2000 to 2009 in New Zealand, Mr Boyce managed two Christchurch International Writers Festivals in 2006 and 2008, timed between the Brisbane and Melbourne Writers Festivals to enable sharing of program elements.
