Comedy Theatre

  • Entertainment
  • Theatre

The Comedy Theatre doesn't just stage great comedy shows – the historic 1928 theatre also hosts musicals and drama, with seating for 1000 patrons.

Like a Florentine palace on the outside, and with a Spanish-inspired interior, the theatre has staged such shows as Keating, Menopause the Musical, Waiting for Godot, The Rocky Horror Show, Avenue Q and Bran Nue Dae.

The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wadawurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin have to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We are committed to our reconciliation journey, because at its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, for the benefit of all Victorians.
