Underground Theatre Company

Producing quality student theatre since 1912 at the University of QLD. In 2026 the indie arts community faces many threats to its existence. Practitioners and students alike are being forced to the fringes with limited resources and support. One of the most imminent of these challenges is the lack of access to space to perform, develop and refine new works. While Underground sits in limbo without a dedicated space, we can instead create a metaphorical home that artists and students can learn and grow from without the external pressures of financial viability or stakeholder appeasement. As part of this process, we want to interrogate and explore the qualities that make home- home.
