History and Facilities


The Roleystone Theatre has a long tradition with its beginnings in the 1930s as a choral and amateur dramatic society.  The theatre group you see today has been evolving since the 1970s when a collection of interested locals began putting on quality performances of plays and musicals.

For a more thorough history, please see our booklet produced in 1993, marking our diamond jubilee.

The Roleystone Theatre currently produces, on average, five major shows every year and is well known for the quality of our performers, sets and technical work.

The building itself has undergone many alterations however the bulk of the auditorium is an art-deco original and is Heritage listed.  The building has facilities for persons with a disability or limited mobility, including ramps into the foyer and auditorium as well as an allocated restroom. For your comfort air conditioning and comfortable, padded chairs are features of our auditorium.

There is also a licensed bar and well-stocked kiosk to cater for your refreshment needs at all performances.

We are glad to be renowned for our warm welcome and friendliness to newcomers.
