Theatre Safe Australia: Scenery Workshop

If you want to put on a show, large or small, then look no further than Theatre Safe Australia.

Setting the Scene

In live performance, the scenery is more than decoration – it defines the story, shapes the atmosphere, and draws audiences into another world. At Theatre Safe Australia’s Scenery Workshop, creating that magic is what we do best. From community productions to international musicals, our workshop builds scenery that inspires, performs, and lasts.

Who We Are

Recognised as one of the leading construction facilities in the southern hemisphere, TSA’s Scenery Workshop has over 40 years of experience supporting theatre, film, television, and live events.

Our multi-skilled team includes carpenters, engineers, prop makers, scenic painters, automation specialists, drafters, and set electrics experts – all working under one roof. That breadth of capability means we can deliver every aspect of a scenic build in-house, from first sketch to final finish.

Being a part of Theatre Safe Australia, our clients benefit from the backing of TSA’s wider network: automation, track systems, performer flying, drape manufacturing and national servicing.

What We Do

No project is too large or too small. Our services include:

  • Carpentry – From small props to large-scale sets.
  • Automation – Revolving stages, trapdoors, lifts, or flying effects.
  • Engineering – Fabricating steel and aluminium structures designed to last.
  • Sculpture & Props – Handmade bespoke pieces with character.
  • Scenic Painting – From painted backdrops to full scenic treatments.
  • Set Electrics – Integrated lighting and LED effects to enhance design.

This mix of skills makes us one of the most versatile workshops in the industry.

Proven at Every Level

We pride ourselves on being adaptable and accommodating. Schools and community theatres come to us to deliver their vision with the care and support our team offers that elevates their productions. Major productions trust us to deliver high quality builds under international time pressures, with scenery and technology that meets world-class standards.

Whether the job is local or global, modest or massive, our approach is the same: bring every client’s vision to life with detail, creativity, and safety.
