About this venue
The Edge is Friction Arts' flexible creative venue with two large studios and a smaller quiet workspace. It is used for rehearsals, workshops, meetings, screenings, training, performances and community events. The Grey Studio is the ground-floor performance space; the Red Studio is a quieter first-floor space; and the Garden Studio is a small workspace with rooftop views. The venue has lift access to all floors and a shared kitchen. It is not licensed and generally does not host late-night events; amplified sound has an 11pm curfew. The published weekday hourly rates apply to community and creative organisations, while commercial and corporate enquiries can request a tailored quote.
