Career

Bergmoser won the Sir Peter Ustinov Television Scriptwriting Award in 2015 for his screenplay Windmills.
Bergmoser's play The Trial of Dorian Gray, based on The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, premiered at the 2019 Midsumma Festival in Melbourne directed by Peter Blackburn. A negative review in The Sydney Morning Herald said that Bergmoser had "a bright future", but criticized the script for failing to meet its potential and "engage critically with our censorious present flashes of Wildean wit are few and far between, and precise expression sometimes eludes ."
His play The Critic was performed several times throughout Melbourne, including at Club Voltaire in North Melbourne in 2016 and at the 2019 Melbourne Fringe Festival. A review in the Herald praised it as a "amusing piece of metatheatre" that addresses its themes with "nuance".
