About us

​Our cosy auditorium holds 69 patrons and we have a licensed bar for your enjoyment. There is an Audio Loop for the convenience of patrons who are hearing impaired.

 

Staffed entirely by volunteers, the theatre provides a variety of creative opportunities, ranging from acting and production to backstage, front of house and administration. We welcome new members. We have a large and loyal subscriber base covering metropolitan Melbourne and beyond.  

 

Subscriptions are for 3, 4 or 5 productions in a year, providing a generous discount.Group bookings attract a discount for groups of 20 or more (does not apply to subscriptions, which are already discounted) and are an excellent way of raising funds for clubs or groups. We welcome such bookings other than on Opening Night.

 

Performance times are 8.00pm Wednesday – Saturday, and 5.00pm Sunday.

 

Hire is available from our extensive wardrobe and properties departments on site.

 

Each year we present  a playbill of five productions, selected by a play selection committee that liaises with the Committee of Management.

 

Since its inception, WLT has presented well over 300 plays, details of which can be seen  in our archive. On 25th of every month, our electronic newsletter Cues & News is emailed. To receive Cues & News, let us know via the contact tab. Past issues are archived for reference.

 

WLT is a member of the Victorian Drama League.
