Sydney Theatre Company

A mainstay of the city’s cultural scene since 1978, the Sydney Theatre Company presents a high-calibre programme from its home among the old wharves of Walsh Bay. Have dinner or drinks at the pleasingly self-descriptive Theatre Bar at the End of the Wharf before catching a show. You might even find a Hollywood celeb among the cast: Cate Blanchett, Rose Byrne, Geoffrey Rush and Hugo Weaving, among others, have returned to their old stomping ground in recent years.
