Pieter Toerien's Theatre on the Bay offers a good mix of local and international drama, musicals, comedy, cabaret, music and dance.
Enjoy a pre-show drink at the Coffee Lounge or the theatre bar. Dietrich's Bar, in the main foyer, is also open after each performance, so you can round off your evening by joining the actors for a nightcap.
Not only does this intimate theatre host the best shows in town, it is also home to the Act I Theatre Café. This fabulous restaurant is open for dinner both before and after the show, and the small, diverse menu is changed seasonally.
Act I Theatre Café is comfortable and relaxed, with production reviews and newspaper clippings under glass-topped tables, and photographs of the South African productions of CATS and The Phantom of the Opera on the walls, the Act I Theatre Café is the curtain-raiser on a great night out.
Situated on the first floor of the complex, the restaurant is ideal for a leisurely pre-show dinner. The evening sunset and lights of Camps Bay will accompany your starters and main course, and your meal can be rounded off with dessert at interval or after the show.
All drinks can be taken into the theatre – there are glass holders on the back of each seat.
