Her Majesty's Theatre Information
Her Majesty's Theatre 'The Maj' is Melbourne's home to the world's greatest stage shows. The Maj is a heritage listed lyric theatre that has been entertaining audiences since 1886, celebrating its 125th Anniversary of "Entertaining Australia" in 2011.
The Maj has hosted productions such as Doctor Zhivago, Mary Poppins, Chicago, Miss Saigon, Cabaret, Mamma Mia!, Monty Python's Spamalot, Billy Elliot The Musical, The Merchants of Bollywood, Hair, Bizet's Carmen, Queen 'Its a Kinda Magic', Nutcracker on Ice AND the Hollow Crown to name a few.
Restored by its new owner, Mike Walsh OBE, in 2000, and with ongoing renovations and improvements - including new and more comfortable seats throughout the auditorium, a modern stage house, enlarged orchestra pit and upgraded backstage facilities - Her Majesty's Theatre continues to be a truly dynamic venue, hosting musicals, plays, opera, dance, comedy and more. Its Art Deco interior boasts an impressive seating capacity of 1700 seats, yet the auditorium is renowned for its intimate setting.
The Maj has been a bastion of the performing arts in Melbourne since it opened in 1886, earning its status of Australian icon.
