  Christopher Allen, Performance Space, Companion To Theatre In Australia, 1995, 431-432

  Theatre in Cleveland Street, Redfern, Sydney, opened 1983.

  ---

  Mike Mullins set up the Performance Space for experimental theatre and dance in an old railway workers' union hall that had been occasionally used for performances since his New Blood in 1980. His ambition was to provide a professional venue for what he called 'new form '. Many individuals and the University of Sydney's Theatre Workshop helped to turn the hall into a theatre and it officially opened in 1983 with Mullins's Long Long Time Ago . Its uses have gradually encompassed the visual arts - particularly with a performance, temporal or installation aspect-theory and criticism. In mid-1983 the present writer joined Mullins as co-ordinator and brought Entra’acte Theatre to the Performance Space as resident company. Nicholas Tsoutas followed with his All Out Ensemble.
