Theatre shows for adults and kids


The Peoples Theatre has been introducing young audiences to the magic of theatre for more than 25 years, performing to over 150,000 children each year. Each production is carefully staged and directed to entertain and educate young audiences with song, dance, life lessons, and just enough slapstick and adult humour thrown in to ensure that Mom and Dad are just as enthralled. Professional actors and amazing stage design makes this an unforgettable experience for young and old!

Situated in the Joburg Theatre Complex (formerly the Johannesburg Civic Theatre, this purposely created Children’s Theatre is South Africa’s flagship theatre for young people, staging over 8 productions per year. Children are inspired, enchanted and challenged by the power of theatre, where a story book comes to life on stage through elaborate sets, costumes, good sounds, lighting and professional actors.

Peoples Theatre believes that all theatre, whether it be for adults or children, has to enjoy the same high levels of production.

What a vibrant performance! From costumes to a brilliant cast, props, sing, song and dance every scene was grooving with entertainment. A must-see show, impeccably depicting the well loved movie, stirring nostalgia while getting the feet tapping and the body, uhhm moving! If you like to move it, move it, this ones for you! Hilarious fun for the whole family.

Second Star to the Right and Straight on to the Peoples Theatre!

Get ready to soar into a world of magic, mischief, and make-believe as the Peoples Theatre proudly presents the timeless classic, Peter Pan! Running from 9 June to 26 July, this spectacular production transforms the stage into a vibrant Neverland, offering the ultimate treat for the young and the young at heart.

The adventure begins on a quiet night in the Darling nursery. When the elusive Peter Pan leaps through the window in search of his lost shadow, he finds more than he bargained for. With a sprinkle of Tinkerbell’s shimmering pixie dust and a few happy thoughts, Peter whisks Wendy, John, and Michael out of London and across the stars to a land where rules are forgotten and children never grow up.

Whether facing off against the villainous Captain Hook or navigating the Mermaid’s Lagoon, the characters show that even the smallest person can be brave when they stand by their friends.
