Fab Nobs Theatre Inc is a not-for profit organisation, located in Melbourne's outer-east. Everyone is welcome.

Fab Nobs formed in 2003 and staged its first production, "A Slice of Saturday Night" in a converted factory on Burgess Road, Bayswater. In 2008 Fab Nobs changed location to 33 Industry Place, Bayswater, where they transformed “the factory” into a theatrical space ideal for diverse productions. The cabaret like atmosphere provides the perfect setting to stage unique concerts and productions that ra

nge from the classics: Little Shop of Horrors, A Little Night Music and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, to the contemporary: Next to Normal, The Drowsy Chaperone and Avenue Q, as well as the quirky Zombie Prom, Return to the Forbidden Planet and tick, tick, BOOM - just to name a few! Fab Nobs is dedicated to involving all members of the community, whether it is to be on the stage or behind the scenes. Fab Nobs are also devoted to giving back to the community, having made donations to many charities. Students have also had the opportunity to experience the ‘theatre world’ through a ‘Work Experience’ program, which has been highly regarded within the community. We look forward to seeing you in the foyer at our next show!

Just over a week ago Fun Home played its final show at Fab Nobs Theatre after an absolutely amazing season! We are so proud of all involved on putting together this rarely gem of a musical.

Thank you to everyone who was a part of this production, from our creative team, to our set builders, our sound and lighting teams, our stage managers, our band, our committee, and so many more. Shows like this are a true labour of love, and we are always so blessed to have so many amazing people helping put together shows at our company.

We would also like to give a massive congratulations to our cast, who worked together as an incredible team to put together this emotional piece of theatre every night. We know bonds have been formed here that will last a lifetime. We are so glad to have had every one of you, from those returning to the Fab Nobs stage to those who are first timers. We hope to have you all back very soon!

Thank you to everyone who supported our amazing Fun Home family, on and off the stage, and we hope to see you back at the next show!
