Funding 

Theatre is a people and skills-intensive industry, and while ticket buyers cover an incredible 67% of STC's annual operating budget, this alone cannot cover all of the costs of a production.

With another 9% of our cost base covered by recurring Government subsidy, STC rely on private funding from their corporate partners, individuals, trusts and foundations, to continue to build on STC's groundbreaking history and nurture and employ the best of Australia's creative talent for all to enjoy.
