ABOUT US
Who we are.
VESSEL Perth provides a home from which we can bring entertaining, unique and unforgettable events to the growing Perth arts scene.
What we stand for.
Influenced and inspired by the models of some of the most successful independent / fringe theatres in the world, our aim is to bring audience-focussed, relevant and innovative work to Perth, while breaking down some of the barriers that has made art less accessible to potential audiences in the past.
Affordable ticketing is a central part of that strategy; our aim is to encourage young audiences to take chances on new works with our accessible ticket price point. Our focus will always be innovation and celebrating creativity within the constraints of small-budget production. We belive that if we prioritise audience experience and connection in the true “fringe” spirit, small-scale work can pack the same punch as high-end production, and resonate with audiences just as deeply.

An inspiring talk, or a vivacious cabaret. Or maybe some performance art incorporating all of the above in an unforgettable new way? It’s hard to say what a typical visit to VESSEL Perth will be...
