The Seaborn Broughton & Walford
Foundation was founded in 1986 as a
charitable organisation to benefit the Australian Performing Arts. It
originated when the Griffin Theatre Company, who were doing such
valiant work in promoting Australian plays and playwrights, appealed
for somebody to save the historic Stables Theatre at Kings Cross. This
was done by our purchasing the Stables Theatre and the Griffin Theatre
Company has benefited by having a rent free theatre (less outgoings)
since 1986.
