Her Majesty's Theatre

Her Majesty's Theatre is Melbourne's home to the world's greatest musicals. Beautifully restored, HMT is a heritage listed lyric theatre that has been entertaining audiences for over 120 years.

Now hosting the 10th Anniversary Tour of MAMMA MIA!, and soon to host the Australian premiere of Mary Poppins, HMT continues its tradition of staging the world's best musicals. Since 2002, HMT has hosted the Melbourne premiere of Miss Saigon (2007); Cabaret (2003); MAMMA MIA! (2005); Monty Python's Spamalot; and the critically-acclaimed box office smash Billy Elliot The Musical.

Restored by its new owner, Mike Walsh OBE, in 2000, and with ongoing renovations and improvements - including new and more comfortable seats throughout the auditorium in 2007 - HMT continues to be a truly dynamic venue, hosting musicals, plays, opera, dance, comedy and more. Its Art Deco interior boasts an impressive seating capacity of 1700 seats, yet the auditorium is renowned for its intimate setting.

The Maj has been a bastion of the performing arts in Melbourne since it opened in 1886, earning its status of Australian icon.
