21 Shepherd Street, Marrickville

After twenty-five years of making work in borrowed, temporary, and abandoned spaces — from warehouses to office blocks, from hidden corners of the city to places marked by absence — The Living Room Theatre has finally found a permanent home.

This new space marks a turning point: a place for rehearsal, experimentation, and artistic risk. A home for those seeking to make work that is brave, intimate, and necessary.

The launch of The Living Room Theatre at 21 Shepherd Street celebrates this long-awaited moment. Across the evening, artists, collaborators, and friends gathered to mark the beginning of a new chapter — one grounded in the same spirit that has sustained LRT for decades: persistence, curiosity, and the refusal to be silenced.

More than a venue, this home is a living archive of resilience and imagination — a space that will hold the stories and voices too often pushed to the edges, now brought to the centre.
