Our beautiful community now has a home of its own
From 4 July 2022, we will be operating from our new home, the iconic Roxy Theatre.
A Home for the MTL Community
The iconic, heritage listed Roxy Theatre was built in the 1930s in the Art Deco Style. From the 1930s to the 1950s, it was a 1,000 seat cinema. Several different businesses have used it over the years, and a few years ago, the ground floor was transformed into a dance studio, with two studio spaces, fitted out with mirrors and barres. We will be installing sprung floors.
Getting to the Roxy
The studio has plenty of car parking, and is only 8 minutes drive (4.1km) from the Adelaide CBD.
It is also accessible to those from the southern suburbs, thanks to the Southern Expressway. And there are multiple ways to get there in the event of roadworks (down South Road, Winston Avenue/East Terrace, or Anzac Highway)
It is also accessible by public transport.
- Stop 5 on the Glenelg tramline is just around the corner
- There are several bus stops near by
- The closest train station on the City-Seaford line is Emerson Park, which is a7 minute bike ride, an 11 minute bus ride, or a 20 minute walk from the Roxy.
Crowd funding campaign
We’ve only been able to secure our new home thanks to the generosity of our community.
In March 2022, we ran a crowd funding campaign and reached our stretch target of $30,000!
It was an amazing experience, and the generosity of some members of our community was astonishing. The final 24 hours of the campaign were so exciting as we watching the amount pledged rise from around $23,000 to $30,000.
See the video we had on our crowd funding page (hosted on the Pozible platform, an Australian crowd funding platform to help artists raise funds), and the names of many of the wonderful people who contributed (some chose to remain anonymous).
The video was created by Nathan Troisi, and he donated his time and expertise (ps his mother Helen is also in the video), and we can’t thank him enough.
