Venue Hire

The Roleystone Theatre venue is available for hire (for arts related events e.g. concerts, performances, rehearsals, conferences etc).

If you would like to enquire about a possible hire/event please complete this form (online) in the first instance. The committee meets once a month to discuss potential hire, so please make contact early in your process: Venue Hire/Event expression of interest form

Please email secretary@roleystonetheatre.com.au with any other queries.

Please note - as all technical equipment must be operated by Roleystone Theatre volunteer members, not all dates requested will be available due to volunteer staffing availability.

Please note - the Roleystone Theatre Inc. present a large number of seasons throughout the year and the venue is used extensively for rehearsals and performances. However, we do hold 25% of the year, full days including some weekend dates, available.


October General Meeting 2024

Notice of 2024 General Meeting
Tuesday the 15th of October at 7.30pm. 
 
This October’s General Meeting will be held at the Roleystone Theatre 587 Brookton Highway, Roleystone.

Our General Meeting in October is a chance for you, our members, to meet with the committee and find out where we are as a club and as a venue.

We will also be discussing our proposed performance season for 2025.
As in previous years there will be a door prize for attendance and a light supper after the meeting so members can catch up. The meeting usually goes for under an hour.
 
This meeting is open to all members, past and present, and also to everyone in the community. 

** Only current financial members and life members will be eligible to vote on any matters. You can  renew your membership at the meeting if needed**
 
This is YOUR community theatre and we need you at these meetings. If we don't have a quorum the meeting cannot go ahead and we will need to reschedule, so please do come along!

We also want to know what you would like your committee to consider for our future, as well as give feedback on your experiences in the new venue.

Volunteer Service Awards

* Do you meet the requirement of 5 years or more active membership/service with Roleystone Theatre Inc.? 

It doesn't have to be cumulative, you just need to be able to show how you got to 5 or more!*


Contact president@roleystonetheatre.com.au if you would like to be recognised for your membership and service by the WA Government!


The Department of Communities, WA State Government, seeks to acknowledge the significant efforts of Western Australia's volunteers through the WA Volunteer Service Awards program each year. The program recognises Western Australian volunteers who have provided 5 cumulative years or more of voluntary service. More information - click here

 

In 2022 across the state the awards program celebrated 173 extraordinary people for their significant contribution to the community. Roleystone Theatre Inc. itself had 21 of those recipients of those 173.

 

The WA Volunteer Service Awards Recognition Video highlights the work of both the volunteers, and their nominating organisations. The Roleystone Theatre Inc. was chosen, randomly, to be filmed to be in the video. Two of our 50 plus years recipients are featured in it, as well as our current President (who received a 25 years VSA award that year).
