Old 505 Theatre Information

The Old 505 Theatre offers artists and actors a place to see colleagues perform and, having built a solid reputation for our high caliber program, it offers local audiences a quality theatre experience. This underpins our ability to nurture a number of not-for-pro?ts, artist-run associations, and independent performers, by giving them a refreshing home where performance and creation of new work takes precedence. Importantly, it is a space from which these organisations and artists can take themselves to the next level by publicising and promoting their work to the wider community, and developing their artists' voice in a dedicated cultural facility. Our team is committed to offering a performance-focused theatre that is artist orientated. A testament to the success of this model is that we have proven that an artist run space can be managed in a commercially viable and responsible manner. Our mix of quality artistic programming and sound management has seen The Old 505 Theatre become one of Sydney's most respected and popular performance spaces, gain support from various levels of government and become a leading promoter of new Australian content.
