about

Victorian Theatre Company is an independent arts organisation that acts as a connection point between old and new generation artists. We present new Australian writing, as well as facilitate long-form rehearsal processes for late-career practitioners to develop works that are rich with experience and history. We began as six artists from different mediums working together to explore theatrical form, and have since grown into a network of highly engaged members from different backgrounds, ages and stages of career. 

We mostly make work in Melbourne/Naarm, but our collaborations with interstate companies and international artists gives a wider context to our practice. To date, we have presented seven live productions, a feature length film, a writer's podcast and a radio play.
