The Playhouse Theatre
Located in the heart of Hobart’s CBD, the Playhouse Theatre is a beautifully preserved Italian-style theatre and the heritage home of the Hobart Repertory Theatre Society (HRTS). Originally a chapel, this charming and intimate venue exudes the atmosphere of live performance from every wall.
One of Tasmania’s most respected performing arts organisations, HRTS has been bringing productions to life since 1927 and has called the Playhouse home for over 80 years. With seating for 230 and a central location near Hobart’s best restaurants and hotels, it’s the perfect place to enjoy live theatre in a warm and welcoming setting.
Whether you’re a local or a visitor, the Playhouse Theatre offers great entertainment at popular prices, and remains a beloved part of Hobart’s vibrant cultural scene.
