Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre

The Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre, located in Penrith, NSW, was opened in 1990 with a performance by Dame Joan Sutherland accompanied by Richard Bonynge. The Centre initially housed the Penrith Conservatorium of Music, the Richard Bonynge Concert Hall and the Allan Mullins Studio but in 2005 it was upgraded to include the Q Theatre, extended Conservatorium facilities and a large atrium foyer.
