(a) The venue is booked at 95% capacity for the year to date.
(b) The organisations that have booked are:
· Black Swan Theatre Centre
· Institute of Architects
· Wood and Grieves
· Chamber of Commerce
· Healthways
· DramaWest
· Midnite Youth Theatre

· X-Media-Lab

· Perth Theatre Company
· ThinIce
(c) The events were:
· Theatre
· Function
· Conference

(d) A financial return is not calculated for each booking. The venue hire charges for users of the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia (STCWA) were based on the charges for The Playhouse Theatre with allowances for the additional technology available in the venue and for the additional seating capacity in Heath Ledger Theatre. For 2010/11 the Government has provided recurrent funding of $909,000 to meet the net operating costs of the STCWA. This figure is based on estimated expenditure of $2.13m and revenue of $1.22m. The estimated venue hire rental for the financial year 2010/11 is $340,000.
(e) The venue is booked at 85.7% capacity for the remainder of the year.
(f-h) A range of organisations have made bookings and enquiries but it would be inappropriate to release information at this time without the agreement of the relevant Companies.
