Red Line Productions at the Old Fitz

Red Line Productions is a theatre company that was founded in September 2014. It premiered with Howie The Rookie by Mark O’Rowe, winning two Sydney Theatre Awards with six nominations.
Built on the spirit and integrity of the artist, at its core it is an acting company. The absolute focus is on ensemble traditions that, for an audience, create the most dynamic and truthful experiences possible in a theatre. It is a company that will ask ‘why not?’ rather than ‘why?’

On 13 January 2015 Red Line Productions re opened the doors of the legendary Old Fitz Theatre. A venue that was built in 1997 by a group of passionate theatre makers. Alumni from the tiny Old Fitz stage include Tim Minchin, Kate Mulvany, Mark Priestley, Toby Schmitz, Ewen Leslie, Brendan Cowell, Blazey Best, Christopher Stollery, Travis Cotton, Ella Scott Lynch, Patrick Brammell & Leon Ford.

The intensely intimate nature of the venue allows for some fearless programming and production. There are millions of Sydneysiders that don’t even know we exist, yet..

But the people who do know, come back. They bring friends, they ask questions, and they are challenged, confronted and ultimately entertained. The word is out and it’s growing.
