About the episode
In 1985 the Stables Theatre was put up for sale, sparking fear that the home of true Australian storytelling would lost. Griffin Theatre Company’s inaugural Artistic Director Peter Kingston and administrator at the time, Bill Eggerking, tell the remarkable story of how retired psychiatrist and Kings Cross local Dr Rodney Seaborn bought the building and saved the venue. A ‘guardian angel’ of Sydney theatre, he created the Seaborn, Broughton & Walford Foundation which not only lends its name to the SBW Stables Theatre, but has continually provided philanthropic support to the performing arts in Australia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
