KWINANA THEATRE UNDER THREAT!!
Sun, 29 Oct 2000, 09:26 pmEvery Theatre group's dream is to have their own home!
Why is it then that after 30 years KTW seems to be losing theirs.
KTW was enticed to move from their lovely digs in Atkinson Road to the now Kwinana Arts Centre on the proviso that they would have no less than they already had. For ten years this has been working perfectly, now it would seem KTW is faced with Arts Centre and Council indifference. Why are so many obstacles being thrown in their way in regards to the new lease agreement.
It would appear that the almighty dollar is greater than the community spirit of the Theatre. Over the years KTW has shown the quality of its productions through winning many awards. Most recently the Bunbury Festival Award for "Chinamen" and the oustanding production of "Too Far To Walk" which has been invited to present at the Finlay Awards. It would be a shame to see a theatre such as KTW be disbanded through greed of the almighty dollar...surely KTW is what community theatre is all about!

Gill,
There is only one theatre group in Kwinana and there is only one theatre venue. This is why KTW losing their theatre is such a big issue. The nearest theatre company to them is Rockingham, who are a very insular company and make it extremely hard for outsiders to join in. An excess of companies down South in not the problem here!
