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. Dr Seaborn became this saviour when he stepped forward and generously organised the purchase of the Stables Theatre by his newly-established Seaborn, Broughton & Walford Foundation. The Griffin Theatre Company has consequently benefited from this remarkable philanthropic gift allowing it the use of the SBW Stables Theatre rent free (less outgoings) for close on four decades, as well as reduced rental for its offices, next door. This arrangement continued until the Griffin Theatre Company was able to secure significant Government funding and alternate patronage, enabling it to purchase the theatre outright.
