Built in 1928, The Butter Factory Theatre is the original site of Holdenson & Neilson, an operating dairy set amongst the bushland of Gateway Island on the banks of the Murray River.
In 1997 the building was transformed into a professional theatre venue, and became the performance home of HotHouse Theatre.
Further additions were made in 2004, expanding the foyer space and making the studio space perfect for rehearsals, drama classes and corporate events.
When not in use for productions and events produced and curated by HotHouse Theatre, the Butter Factory Theatre spaces are available for hire.
Conveniently located directly between Albury and Wodonga, the Butter Factory Theatre is graced with rustic charm and character and offers a vibrant, unique and inspiring venue for corporate or community events and conferences, performances, private functions, parties and weddings.
