★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice little hideaway theatre, but they NEED to upgrade car park and make it easier, safer and better lit at night.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Risky, underground, experimental plays often performed here. The birth of many great plays. Home of Maori Theatre.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful lobby area, loved the play i watched but was really saddened & frustrated at times by the fact that I could hear the basketball game going on next door!!! Needs soundproofing or don't have a play/scheduled game next door on at the same time :(

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great smaller theatre with intimate seating and high quality setup. Unlucky we could hear the rain on the tin roof but we loved seeing the show 'balls'!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Te Pou theatre is a lot of things to a lot of people. Of course you can go see a show there, and they range in style and type. You may have noticed the name and the line, “the home of Maori theatre”, not every show is in Te Reo and doesn’t need to be to embody the philosophy of the home of Maori theatre. This speaks to a broader philosophy of inclusivity, community and nurturing people. As an actor I have watched many a professional show here, attended rehearsals, performed here and relaxed with friends like any other punter while other events were put on here. It’s a hub of activity and it strikes a balance of warmth and professionalism and community in the arts world that is seldom seen at other places. The actors, writers, producers, creatives and geniuses that were responsible for its creation have made something more than the sum of their parts, they have created a legacy in the professional theatre scene that will span time and go down in history as the moment when art and people of all kinds came together in the community and everyone was the better for it. That is incredible stewardship. Many of the actors involved in this theatre are professionally trained to a high level (think 3 years at a performing arts school or have history equating to a similar hard earned credibility), the interior is homely, welcoming and many productions allow for a glass of something to drink and some nibbles at intermission. You should note that the entrance is not on Portage road, you go round the back using the side road for it’s entrance.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Came here for a fringe festival show (which was also excellent). The theatre is small and intimate, making you feel a part of the show regardless of where you sit. Staff were also lovely. Had a great time
