Circa Theatre has been a champion of New Zealand Theatre for 45 years. Circa has a nationwide reputation for excellence, built on 45 years of professional experience. We have been champions of quality playwriting and performance since 1976, and we continue to take a leadership role; ensuring that theatre practitioners are well-supported so that they can make the best theatre in New Zealand.

Hundreds of productions have been presented by Circa. We have two performance spaces where 20-30 shows are staged each year, providing the Wellington theatre-going audience a very busy and diverse bill of entertainment!

Great theatre is a reflection of life and the human condition. It reflects the true emotions and realities of the stories we all share. When all the elements come together, something truly fantastic occurs – a connection between artists and audience.

Circa is run by the Circa Council. The Circa Council provides the overarching direction of the Theatre, and the professional members of the Council volunteer their time to do so.
