Southsea Kings Theatre

The Kings Theatre Trust Ltd has been responsible for the Kings Theatre Southsea since 2001 and is providing a wide range of professional and community productions to suit all tastes, including the traditional Christmas Pantomime.

Since Portsmouth City Council bought the Kings in 2001 over 820,000 tickets have been sold. The “three quarter million” milestone was reached during the fantastic “Horrible Histories” tour in November 2008. The Kings Theatre employs 16 full time staff, 10 part time staff and over 100 casual employees providing bar staff, ushers and stage crew, and also benefits from the help of over 100 stalwart volunteers.

The local community is wholeheartedly supporting the Kings as a live theatre, and is attending the Kings in record numbers and enjoying the high quality productions being staged.
