Rollerdoor Performance Space aims to provide improvising and experimental artists and musicians with a new venue in which to showcase exciting and contemporary works on a monthly basis in conjunction with openings at our gallery window99.
Rollerdoor is a brand new performance space that is offering experimental and improvising musicians and artists a chance to show new and developing works in a flexible and eclectic space. Rollerdoor started out as an accompaniment to window99 gallery openings allowing both the artists and outside performers to showcase works that they had been developing. After 6 months of performances we have now decided to develop Rollerdoor into a more focussed entity in the arts community.
While still being a major part of the window99 openings and developing and hosting shows for this event Rollerdoor will also be branching out in the new year into more gigs, hopefully showcasing up and coming players and groups in Melbourne's improvised music scene.
