Hello there.
The Butterfly Club is a small theatre in the heart of Melbourne. We have plenty of shows, award-winning foyer bars, and an enormous collection of kitsch.
Our Shows
SEE ALL
Go To Bed, Jessica
Deploying songs like a beer can cannon, injecting humour and defiance into the room in a delightfully messy explosion of creativity.
Ladylike: A Modern Guide to Etiquette
From the art of passive aggressive Facebook comments, to the science of making champagne with goon and a SodaStream, join Louise Beuvink for a masterclass in etiquette and housewifery for the modern age.
Liam Ryan - In Your Dreams
Don’t panic. Everything is fine. This is just a dream. You are dreaming. But it’s ok, Liam is too, and as long as we are here we may as well see what’s kicking around in the ol’ subconscious.
Adulting
If you've ever been engaged at 19 or racked up parking fines worth a house deposit, then like Tash York you've probably not mastered 'Adulting'.
WHOM
You’re cordially invited to a shindig in Clara Cupcakes' cerebral sphere where everyone is welcome, even the weird ones. Especially the weird ones.
My Greatest Period Ever
A heart warming, eye-opening musical exploration into modern folklore and what it means to be or love a woman in the 21st century. There will also be capes.
Laura Davis - GHOST MACHINE
A truly unique experience for the comedy-savvy, GHOST MACHINE is the supercharged show from multi-award winning stand-up Laura Davis.
Ho Life or No Life
EXTRA SHOWS NOW ON SALE
Chase Paradise did what all girls with dreams of stardom do after graduating $90,000 in debt from film school in post-recession Australia, besides developing an ice habit, or working in real estate: she became a stripper.
You are a great listener.
Join us for a drink, a show, or both. Or several of both.
Established in 1999 the Club is the best place to see young rising stars, household names, and the odd big fancy superstar who misses the feeling of performing to an intimate crowd.
We have between two and eight shows every night, our program changes weekly, new shows come up daily, and it’s perfectly ok to make visiting a habit.
Our bars serve award-winning cocktails in rooms decked out by an enormous collection of kitsch.
Producers, we want your shows.
With over 1100 performances every year, we are always on the lookout for new shows. If you are a producer (or self-produced artist) we’d love to hear from you.
With no minimum hire fee, free rehearsals, free front-of-house, free merch sales, and other assorted perks, the Club is a great place to get your work on stage without breaking the bank.
