Theatre

Portsmouth’s theatres are an attraction in themselves, with their rich histories and iconic architecture attracting people to the city – even before a single performer has taken to the stage. But of course, the best way to take in the majesty of these buildings is to enjoy a show.

From national tours straight from the West End, to local productions from celebrated theatre groups, we have them all. Our listings provide a one-stop-shop for all theatre shows coming up in Portsmouth for the weeks and months ahead. You’ll find all the information you need, including details of the performance and who’s appearing in it, as well as ticket price, show times and much more. To book a show, just click through from the listing to the theatre’s booking pages, where you can secure your ticket.
