Angas Street runs from the southern end of Victoria Square to East Terrace.

The street is named after George Fife Angas in recognition of his chairmanship of the South Australian Company.

[4] Angas Street was the site of the Municipal Tramways Trust depot from 1923 until 1986, on the north side not far from Victoria Square.

It was subsequently used as the bookshop of the Adelaide branch of the Communist Party of Australia, and for a while was home to Farmer’s Radio and Suburban Taxis.

In the 1970s, Keith Gallasch OAM (who went on to found RealTime magazine with his partner Virginia Baxter OAM) and David Allen, then both lecturers at the Salisbury College of Advanced Education, formed a theatre group comprising some of their students, called Troupe.

The Troupe collective grew, and performed new Australian works, including some penned by Gallasch.
