About Us

The Artist Group has been in operation since 2009 and is helmed by Michelle Slater, Kevin Coyne and previously with Narelle Kingi. Together, they bring a wealth of industry knowledge both as performers and behind the scenes.

 

As performers in theatre, film, and television across Australia, Broadway, and the West End, Michelle, Kevin, and Narelle have notable credits including Beauty and the Beast, Billy Elliott, Chicago, Hot Shoe Shuffle, Mamma Mia, The Boy from Oz and Neighbours among others.

 

In 2025, The Artist Group expanded its reach by establishing a regional Victoria branch through Parallax Performing Arts in Geelong, directed by Jordan and Fritzie Punsalang. They connected with Kevin and Michelle when their children worked together in the Australian premiere of Matilda the Musical.

 

Both pairs are seasoned industry professionals with a proven track record in training, nurturing, and representing talent, who consistently deliver exceptional work.

 

The Artist Group proudly represents a diverse, skilled and carefully selected pool of talents across various genres including musical theatre, TV, film, commercials, live events and more.

 

Our talents have performed across Australia and internationally, including London, Japan and France. We maintain regular contact with our talents (we see most of them weekly) and take great pride in providing personalised and professional representation.

 

We are closely affiliated with the Michelle Slater Performing Arts Studio and Parallax Performing Arts.
