Historic Sydney theatre saved by actor protest

The Marian Street Theatre at Killara, one of Sydney's oldest theatres that launched careers including Hugo Weaving's, has been temporarily saved from demolition. After Ku-Ring-Gai Council withdrew funding for urgent restorations, budding actors staged a protest and raised $100,000, prompting the council to reconsider the project and explore funding options.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
