Co-located within the same building as the Civic Theatre, The Playhouse includes a new auditorium-seating plan, a lift that provides access to the first floor foyer and second floor auditorium entrance, a comprehensive technical fit-out, new rehearsal and dressing room, foyer bar and box office. The Playhouse (in stark contrast to the Civic Theatre) is a very modern, steep tiered, intimate, flat floor performance space. In short, the Playhouse is a new home for the performing arts in Newcastle. Above all the Playhouse is about providing local practitioners and their audience access to a venue that has as low as possible operating cost that is located in the heart of Newcastle’s Civic and Cultural Precinct.
The Playhouse hosted Hazy Cosmic Jive Artist Showcase with Amy Vee
