About MTC
Mordialloc Theatre is a not for profit community theatre group, which has been in existence since 1945. We produce 5 plays a year which are performed at the Shirley Burke Theatre in Parkdale, which seats 160 patrons. Attendance for each season varies between 900 and 1500 patrons. We rehearse at a hall in Cheltenham and store our props and scenery etc at a unit in Warrigal Road, Cheltenham.
We present 10 performances a season including three matinees. The quality of our productions is well known and is supported by the large number of awards we have received.
