The Sydney Theatre Company (STC) is one of Australia's most well-known and notable theatre companies operating from the Wharf Theatre near The Rocks area of Sydney. The Sydney Theatre Company was formed by a grant from the New South Wales State Government in 1979, with Richard Wherret as artistic director and productions followed the year after. The Wharf Theatre opened in 1984 and has produced notable international and local plays, such as works by David Williamson. Wayne Harrison became artistic director in 1990, followed by Robyn Nevin in 1999. Many Australian actors who would later find wider success both locally and internationally such as Hugo Weaving, have cut their teeth in Sydney Theatre Company productions.
