Giant Dwarf is a hidden theatre just down the road from central station in Redfern, Sydney. Taken over and restored by the Chaser team in 2015, the venue has become an incubation ground for a range of upcoming comedy acts, as well as providing a much needed middle-sized performance space for Sydney's creative performance community.

The theatre includes two small bars, a video wall for on-stage presentations, and a piano kindly lent to the space by Tim Minchin.

The venue has been hired in the past for a range of uses, including TV/music video shoots, storytelling nights, theatre rehersals, movie screenings, live podcasts, and touring standup acts.
