At Auckland Theatre Company, we believe that theatre is for everyone, from children to grandparents, teenagers to parents, newcomers to hard-core enthusiasts. 

ATC Participate is our community programme, providing accessible, fun ways for the whole family to get actively involved with theatre processes.

You can learn new skills, try acting for the first time, watch open rehearsals, attend open days and play-readings, get to see behind-the-scenes and take part in community shows.

To celebrate the move to our new premises at 487 Dominion Road, we are running a year-long project called DOMINION ROAD STORIES. We invite you to share your stories and memories about life on Dominion Road, and there are lots of easy ways that you can contribute to this project.

In the April School Holidays we went go Southside, collaborating with students from the innovative Pacific Institute of Performing Arts (PIPA) to present SINARELLA - a follow-up to 2011's hit, POLLY HOOD IN MUMULAND. This new musical comedy was the perfect school holiday treat for the whole family.

Later in October, we again join forces with PIPA to present TSUNAMI - dedicated to those affected by the devastating events in Samoa in 2009.

Join the movement.
Occupy the theatre.
Get involved.
