Phillip Adam's Ballet Lab is the current tenant at the Temperance Hall. The journey to establish the company and find somewhere to explore and create has been a long one for Mr P and his company. Now, though, they have found a safe harbour and invested time, care, and money to restore the building to a state of grace, community and creativity. This is a poetic cycle in four songs echoing the story of Mr P and his Ballet Lab.

Emerald Hill Coffee Palace is a collection of 6 audio works distributed free as podcasts and which are creative responses to the history of the Emerald Hill Temperance Hall site, the Temperance movement, and the building itself. Since it’s original construction it has been a bastion of creative thinking and activity and this collection aims to honour that.

As you sit in one of the local cafes and sip your coffee of choice, have a listen to some of the ideas and impulses which have sprung from the people connected to this wonderful old building. Have a laugh with the mocha or the frappe. Get a fix of history with our espresso or flat white. Take a lyrical journey with a cappuccino. There is even a bobbaccino for the kids!

This project was created across the lands of the Australian Aboriginal people and we are honoured to be sharing in their storytelling tradition and has been made possible through the support of The City of Port Phillip and Arts Access Victoria Thrive Creative Grants for deaf and disabled artists.
