The Theatre Works Foyer Gallery

In 2010, Theatre Works will celebrate 30 years since the company's formation and 25 years in its current home in St Kilda!

Founded in late 1979 by Carolyn Howard, Peter Finlay, Peter Sommerfeld, Hannie Rayson, Graeme Stephen, Tony Kishwai and Susan Fraser, Theatre Works has continued to go from strength to strength with award winning productions and initiatives.

To celebrate these significant milestones, Theatre Works will be presenting a number of events throughout the year including a fabulous retrospective yearlong foyer exhibition, showcasing the company's history through posters, photos, scripts and other show memorabilia including plays by our founding and early members, Hannie Rayson, Peter Sommerfeld and Paul Davies, just to name a few.
