About

---

The Theatre Association of South Australia Inc (TASA) was established in 1985 by Phillip Halsall under the name of the Amateur Theatre Society Inc.

In 1998 the Society changed both its charter and its name to TASA to remove the stigma associated with the word “amateur”, particularly in this day and age of increased quality from most non-professional theatre companies.
