Globe Theatre Dunedin

Globe Theatre Dunedin Dunedin's theatre-in-a-house, established in 1961, by Patric and Rosalie Carey, at 104 London St.

Founded by Patric and Rosalie Carey when they extended the living room of their house in London Street into an auditorium, converting it into a small, 30 seat theatre which they called The Globe. We are now a 70 seat theater putting on an eclectic mix of new and old, new Zealand and foreign plays for your viewing pleasure.

Dunstan High School Class of 2020 alum, Juliet Capulet (aka Cait Gordon), led a QnA with the 51 super tauira from her Alma Mater, who came to last night’s show. Actor Daniel Mason and director Brent Caldwell joined Cait as they shared stories of the vision, adaptation, auditions, rehearsal process, and production of our sold-out season.

Globe Theatre Dunedin greatly appreciates the support of dedicated kaiako like those from Dunstan High School, who immerse their tauira in Ngā Toi.

Still on a high from our beautiful birthday celebration.
Romeo and Juliet was the play that opened our theatre, in May of 1961. So it is only fitting that we stage our Romeo & Juliet in May of 2026, and set it in Otago in May of 1961. Featuring two of the original cast.
