    A sensational old world theatre. Close and personal. Great accoustics. A piece of living history. The basement venue is great for intimate entertainment. I had the opportunity to enjoy an evening of stand up comedy. It's an ideal venue. Great staff, cafe upstairs, bar and ample local parking.

    A beautiful heritage building both internally & externally! The renovations to the balcony & other sections are wonderful. Truly a cultural icon of Perth & an incredible venue to see performances.

    Went to see a Ballet! The venue was great! Jam packed with people that all seemed excited and happy to be there. The bar offers your basic drinks! However, the catering side leaves much to be desired. You can't enter the theatre with food and, that might be the reason why food is not a big thing here. Otherwise, I liked it! I thought the theatre design was pretty smart too.

    Ah, His Majesty's Theatre, a veritable bastion of the performing arts. Upon entering its august halls, one cannot help but be struck by the grandeur of the architecture - a testament to a bygone era of opulence and refinement. But alas, dear reader, my visit to this esteemed establishment was marred by the most lamentable of circumstances. Despite my utmost enthusiasm for the performance, my viewing experience was gravely hindered by the woeful quality of my seats. Nestled in the uppermost reaches of the theatre, my companion and I were doomed to occupy the worst seats in the house - seats 30 and 31, if memory serves. From this lofty perch, we were unable to fully appreciate the stage, as half of it was hidden from our sight. It was as though we were watching a play through a scrim, with key moments of the performance forever shrouded in mystery. I implore the management of His Majesty's Theatre to consider the plight of those who are forced to occupy such inadequate seats. They should not be allowed to sell tickets to these areas, for it is an injustice to both the performers and the audience. In conclusion, while His Majesty's Theatre is a beautiful building, I must sadly report that my experience was marred by the subpar quality of my seats. Let this serve as a cautionary tale to those who may be considering purchasing tickets to the upper reaches of the theatre.

    What an absolute delight to spend time in this beautiful venue enjoying the arts. It really does feel like you are surrounded by the city and its surrounds when you spot the Theatre along your way, all lit in its splendour. I never tire of the Performances and indeed cannot wait to attend again soon.

    Watched the Swan Lake performance and we’re blow away by the dancers and the music.

    The renovations are superb and then the performance of Now Serving by PCC was an awesome display of musical talent and fun!

    First time to see a ballet and I wasn't disappointed. Things always seem much nicer in a heritage building but I find the seats to me a bit close and more suited to a primary school.

    The classic Nutcracker was very good, enjoyed it, and will probably go and see the classic swan lake if it comes up.

    Me and the misses went to see Ross Noble. The theatre has been revamped in recent recent times and was nice inside. It's not small, but it's not as big as some of the London theatres I've been to, the seats were comfortable, and the view from the dress circle was excellent. Ross Noble was excellent and was very clever with his act! Went for a walk in Northbridge after.......my first time!!!! Overall, it was an excellent evening out with the misses. Highly recommended!

    This is a classic musical theatre. Went to hear my daughter sing Christmas songs and acoustics were great, view of the stage great and wheelchair access for my Mum was easy via His Majesty's car park over the road.

    Beautiful performance of The Nutcracker, fantastic seats to view entire stage and seats that were not uncomfortable for duration of performance. Obtaining drinks or service at the new bar on ground level was another thing. Trying to get a bartender to actually give me their attention and walk away mid conversation was just rude. Drinks specials display were snatched away and told they were not available when trying to order one. I appreciate it was busy but we were quite taken aback at the service.

    2nd visit, 1st for a fantastic guided tour, next to enjoy Christmas Concert by WA Wind Plus One. 5 very talented ladies, playing their wind instruments and a gentleman on Percussion. Would recommend visiting this beautiful theatre with over 100 years of history, a real joy 😊

    Had a great time watching La Traviata. The venue itself was luxurious but the seating was not the most comfortable for such a long opera.

  • 5/5 Laura V. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful venue. We watched the wonderful WA Ballet and had a great time.

    Looks brilliant! The theatre there was great to. Drinks are tasty and the food looks good too. Hope to watch something there again soon!

    What's not to love? Best to get lounge seats or dress middle slightly left or right to see & hear. I'm a little deaf & blind & require disabled access. For such a historic building it has fabulous access. Shame about the work going on at the moment meaning scaffolding but they are just maintaining this beautiful piece of Western Australian architectural history. Have been to see Sweeney Todd, Bring It On, Alice in Wonderland ballet recently. It's Sister theatre, Her Majesties in Melbourne is equally magnificent.

    I went to see Tosca tonight.. My first opera.. What an amazing show, there was even surtitles on screens on the left and right of the stage for the non-Italian speaking folk in the audience.. Hearing live opera (wow) what an experience... I had never been in His Majesty's Theatre before.. The staff were friendly and really helpful. I sat in the right seat, only on the wrong floor, when I moved I had a better view of the stage. I only took photos before the show and from where I sat, I'll go for another visit and take more pictures.. The seats were comfortable for the 2 hour performance and everything was so clean and tidy.. Theres a bar/cafe on the right of the main entrance so you can have a coffee or a little drinky-poo before the performance.. My next visit I'll see if I can come along for a play, or maybe some Shakespeare.. 🤔 Edit: I've added some photos of the outside of the building.. Its bathed in purple lights to commemorate the passing of our beloved Queen Elizabeth II.. Now the building's name makes sense His Majesty's Theatre for King Charles III
