For over 60 years, ATYP has nurtured the next generation of actors, directors, writers, designers, and theatre-makers. We’re excited to transform our rehearsal space, The Popsy, into a brand-new 55-seat black box performance and development space. This space will complement our 188-seat theatre, The Rebel, providing young and emerging artists with an accessible, flexible environment to experiment, collaborate, and bring new ideas to life.

Currently, The Popsy lacks the infrastructure to fully support performances. Your support will help us bring it up to professional standards, making it a true home for innovation and creativity.

Why Donate?
Your support helps ATYP build:

• A purpose-built seating bank allowing multiple staging configurations to support experimental and non-traditional performances.
• A new lighting grid and control desk, giving artists the technical tools they need to realise their creative visions.
• A new professional-standard sound system, providing emerging artists essential infrastructure to share their stories with clarity and impact.

By supporting this transformation, you are investing in the next generation of Australian creatives. You are helping ATYP become a creative lab: a space for risk-taking, collaboration, and innovation where new voices, ideas, and stories can thrive.

Every Gift Makes a Difference
Whether it’s $25, $100 or $1,000, every donation helps us continue our work and broaden our reach. Your contribution supports real opportunities for young people to express themselves, build confidence, and take creative risks. 

Together, we can bring The Popsy to life as a dynamic hub for artistic exploration.
