Malthouse Theatre

Malthouse Theatre is the resident theatre company of the Malthouse performing arts complex in Southbank, part of the Melbourne Arts Precinct. Originally built in 1892 as a brewery and malting works, Carlton and United Breweries donated the Malthouse building for the creation and presentation of contemporary Australian theatre in 1990.

The Malthouse building now houses three theatres (500-seat Merlyn Theatre, the 175-seat Beckett Theatre and the 100-seat Tower Theatre), administration, rehearsal studios and a vibrant cafe and bar.

Malthouse Theatre produces and presents up to twenty productions annually, from drama to contemporary opera, music theatre and cabaret, to contemporary dance and physical theatre - a multidisciplinary contemporary theatre where the combined possibilities of all the theatre arts are offered centre-stage.

In recent years, Malthouse Theatre productions have been presented by the Edinburgh Festival, Barbican Centre, Vienna Festival, Amsterdam Festival, NZ Festival and Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre.

In 2009, the company's co-production with Belvoir St Theatre, Ionesco's Exit the King, in a commissioned adaptation by Geoffrey Rush and Neil Armfield, was reproduced on Broadway and nominated for four Tony Awards, winning Best Actor for Geoffrey Rush.

Works created at Malthouse aim to test and extend the boundaries of our art form. To be vital, the cultural practice needs to be challenged and renewed.
