Circa Theatre

Producing plays of excellence from New Zealand and the world, Circa has staged over 400 productions since it began in 1976. Over time, it has gained a reputation as one of New Zealand's liveliest and most innovative theatres.

Circa has pioneered its own co-operative system promoting the pursuit of theatre of the highest professional standard while maximising creativity and self reliance. Circa is run by a council of mainly actors and theatre practitioners and each production is its own individual business venture.

In 1994 Circa moved to a custom built building next to Te Papa and has two auditoriums, Circa 1 and Circa 2 as well as a bar and restaurant. Circa stages up to 20 different shows a year and hosts a wide variety of specialist events.
