"TEATRO in Leichardt promises to be an exciting addition to the Arts scene in Sydney, with plays, musicals, classes, concerts! Cabaret is just the beginning,” said Gale Edwards. “I’m so excited to be involved and part of Nathan and Andrew’s daring vision, and to work with such a thrilling line up of Australian artists.”
