Circa’s New Zealand-wide reputation for excellence is built on over 30 years of professional experience. And what a history! Champions of quality playwriting and performance since 1976, home and host to New Zealand’s most influential theatre-makers, Circa continues to lead New Zealand theatre into the 21st Century.
Over 250 productions have been presented by Circa during its lifetime. Now with two performance spaces running, up to 20 different shows are staged each year, providing theatre practitioners with much needed employment and income, and the Wellington theatre-going audience a diverse bill of entertainment.
Our two complementary performance spaces allow us to present an eclectic annual season of work, which includes a popular mix of comedies, dramas, musicals and pantomime.
The scale of our Circa One stage allows for the epic, the spectacular, the dramatic and the hilarious. For over thirty years we have been committed to empowering our leading directors, actors and designers to produce New Zealand and International work on their own terms to a world class level. Our 2010 Circa One season is bursting with characters and stories that will delight, transform, challenge and inspire you. Join us in Circa One and be the final and most important ingredient in our season... with your help we will all become Larger than Life.
Circa Two provides audiences with a more intimate experience. We have held true to the theatrical values that are at the heart of Circa One's philosophy but put them through a different lens. The smaller capacity and intimate nature of the Circa Two space allows audiences to see the 'whites of the actors' eyes' - to observe actors at their most creative. The main feature of our 2010 programme is its vitality; we have actively sought out plays and partnerships that demand a high level of theatrical magic, subtelty and discipline from our practitioners. Circa Two invites you to get Up Close and Personal with our Circa Two plays and players.
Join us - become part of the experience.
