Darlinghurst Theatre, Performance venue in Darlinghurst, Sydney, Australia
Darlinghurst Theatre is a performance venue housed in a converted historical building on Burton Street in Sydney's arts district. The space contains a 200-seat theatre designed for diverse stage productions.
The venue began as a drama school in 1993 and operated from several locations before moving to its current converted church building in 2013. This evolution reflects how the space transformed from its original religious purpose to serve the arts community.
The venue hosted Festival Fatale from 2016 to 2018, celebrating women artists and performers in Australian theatre. This annual program reflected the space's commitment to supporting underrepresented voices in performing arts.
The venue is located in Sydney's arts district and was easily accessible on foot. The space ceased regular operations in mid-2024 and is no longer available for productions or visits.
The building was originally a church, and its architectural structure was preserved while operating as a theatre, creating an unusual blend of spiritual heritage and contemporary performance. This dual identity gave the space a distinctive character that set it apart from conventional theatres.
