Über
Die Oratorium is one of the Convent’s most spectacular spaces. Featuring polished floorboards, distressed walls, leadlight windows, a raised stage, single track dimmer lighting and a green room, this beautiful hall is perfect for a variety of performances, rehearsals, and installations. The Oratory opens onto the Sacred Heart Courtyard and offers views of the Convent gardens.
The Oratory was once a daytime Chapel for the women who lived in the Sacred Heart building. Refurbished in 2014, the Oratory now offers a creative multi-use space that is both majestic and worn.
