Ambitious, multimillion-dollar plans for Parramatta’s Riverside Theatres will enable the development of a new cultural hub for Sydney’s western suburbs.
A design competition for Parramatta’s new multimillion-dollar Riverside Theatres’ redevelopment will get under way this year, with ambitious plans to transform the site.
“We have aspirations to see major touring musicals presented in western Sydney, to continue our partnerships with the Sydney Theatre Company and other major theatre companies around Australia to present their great work in western Sydney in larger-capacity environments.”“This is a really great opportunity to transfer works from Sydney to Parramatta,” he adds.
“There’s an incredible vibe in Parramatta. On Friday and Saturday nights, it’s a really busy, vibrant area for families to enjoy being out together again,” says McMaster. “There are many colourful, joyful and music-filled festivals, events, and exhibitions throughout the year, which celebrate the diversity of the region’s communities,” he says.
