The Story Behind His Majesty's Theatre

Believed to be the only remaining working Edwardian Baroque theatre in Australia, His Majesty's Theatre has played host to world renowned musicals, ballet, opera, plays, and many other spectacles that have woven the cultural fabric of Perth since its opening in 1904.

The history of entertainment on the corner of King and Hay began long before the construction His Majesty's Theatre. Prior to its construction, the vacant land was home to a paddock which came to life with performers of all kinds who drew in bedazzled Colonial crowds eager to be entertained in these rough pre-Federation times. One could say that Perth's beloved Maj has stood the test of time because it was built upon a bedrock of entertainment, set deep in the foundations of where it still proudly stands today.
