Have you always wondered about what the Gold Coast Little Theatre is like? Wonder no more! We’ve got the low-down for locals!
Gold Coast Little Theatre
This awesome family-friendly venue was established in 1950 – making it the oldest community theatre in the local area AND one of the oldest in Queensland itself! This venue has hosted well over 200 interesting and evocative productions in its history and, fingers crossed, will be one of the Gold Coast‘s cultural hubs for years to come.

There is parking available on the grassed area in front of the theatre itself or on neighbouring streets (making sure you obey any parking signs).
What’s the Gold Coast Little Theatre like?
Expect an old-world charm that’s lost in bigger, more modern venues. The theatre shows its age (in a good way) but is incredibly tidy and looked after with loving pride. There are drinks available and friendly staff are more than willing to ensure patrons have a wonderful night out at the theatre.
Compared to bigger scale venues, the ticket prices at Gold Coast Little Theatre are very accessible and make this cultural activity easier to access for everyone. Don’t think you have to travel to Brisbane to see a world-class show – see what your local acting troupes are capable of and keep local flavour alive!
Is Gold Coast Little Theatre accessible?
Given the time of its construction, the GCLT is not exactly modern when it comes to full accessiblity. This is a smaller space and can be difficult to negotiate – however, with planning it’s possible for everyone to enjoy the show. Make sure you call ahead to explain and ask questions about your individual situation.
Dinner and a show, Gold Coast style!
