“Disappointing ”

TripAdvisor ratingReviewed 10mos ago by Tara N

Really disappointed I spent nearly $600 on 2 tickets and had to sit in really small and uncomfortable seats and had to look at the back of a gentleman's head the whole concert. Not what I payed for...

“Great venue for a play and a rock gig”

TripAdvisor ratingReviewed 1yr ago by Dayle E

Saw a play and a rock band here - both awesome experiences. Canberra itself is a bit boring but at least with the theatre there is some fun and culture. Very comfortable seats and great location.

“The Wider Earth”

TripAdvisor ratingReviewed 2yrs ago by Kirsty H

Last night we attended ‘The Wider Earth’ in the Playhouse. It was a beautiful show - thought-provoking, beautifully acted and amazing puppets. Really recommend!
