Visit

Just a hop, skip and a jump north of the bridge from the CBD, Ensemble Theatre is situated in a heritage-listed boatshed on the water in Kirribilli.

GETTING HERE

TRAIN

The next stop north after Wynyard Station, take the train to Milsons Point station, exit at Ennis Rd and it’s just a 5 minute walk down Willoughby Street.

FERRY

The most scenic way to travel, treat yourself and jump on a ferry from Circular Quay to Milsons Point (a 10 – 15 minute walk) or Kirribilli Wharf (also, a 10 – 15 minute walk).

CAR

There’s free (but time-limited) street parking all around the theatre. Please allow ample time to park before your performance or booking at Bayly’s Bistro.

Val the Matinee Bus

We offer a bus service for weekday matinee performances. The bus departs from Ennis Rd, outside Milsons Point train station from 10am to 10.45am, then returns to the station after the performance. We also offer an after-lunch service for Bayly’s Bistro diners. Bookings are not required but there is a suggested $3 donation to help cover costs.

This service is offered thanks to the generosity of our donors, Ros and Alex Hunyour. Ros’ mother Val Lovett treasured her visits to the Ensemble and the bus is fondly named in her memory.

Your safety is our priority
