Alex Theatre ST Kilda (ATSK) is an innovative theatre project set up to develop a more in-depth understanding of how to keep stage and screen productions viable.
The Alex Theatre was founded in 2015 and is the home to a diverse array of performing arts groups and artists who are actively working towards a common goal, which was put into motion by producer and global entrepreneur Aleksandar Vass OAM upon his return to Australia from the UK.
St Kilda was chosen due to its historic value to the arts, it was the original wellspring of rock music, creative arts, and film in Australia, and the top end of Fitzroy Street is the perfect location, nestled within the George building adjacent to the George Hotel for this ambitious project.
A multipurpose arts venue offering three different-sized spaces where hirers and producers are able to present a wide range of works in an accessible, comfortable venue that is also commercially viable.
This is a 10-year project to develop operational guidelines to assist small performing arts venues to be self-sustaining.
