Arts & Culture

Darlinghurst Theatre Company is the best theatre company in Sydney based in Darlinghurst. I have an annual subscription and always enjoy and am challenged by their plays. Plus the heritage Burton Street Tabernacle restored as the Eternity Playhouse is a stunning state of the art theatre, which is a pleasure to be in.
