Cell Block Theatre

Established in 1836 as a prison for women, the old cell block gaol was closed in 1914 and sat dormant for more then 30 years before being handed back to the community. Generous patron Bill Crisp pushed for the building to be converted into a theatre and in 1955 it was a fully functional theatre. Today it is used for plays and education as apart of the National Arts School. It also doubles as a fantastic venue as can be seen here with Megadeck staging providing a clear 2.4m tall DJ deck littered with fairy lights.
