Housed within a historic building, the theatre, opened in 1927, has seen performances ranging from Opera to cinema. Two seating levels provide for uninterrupted views of the arena, and the front mezzanine seats are the best in the house. Notable shows have been musicals, such as 'Grease', in the late 70s and early 80s, 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' and the Pulitzer prize winning play 'Anna in the Tropics'. Yesteryear stars like Julie Andrews premiered here, while contemporary glamour can be found in the likes of Sean 'P Diddy' Combs.
