The Repertoty Players (REPS THEATRE) Reviews

Felt transported to another place. Service and the bar were great too

Its a home for the theatre school, actors and lovers of theatre

A very vibrant theatre place in Harare. Very 60s looking and the team there have done a tremendous job at mantaining the place. Its clean, child friendly and the best theatre in Harare at the moment.

The theatre is a repertory theatre meaning its not professional actors but the amount of talent and the diverse community to which the society caters and the passion they all have for theatre covers up for the lack of training for most of the actors.

Catch a beer in the bar before shows. Coffee is unavailable but snacks and soft drinks are.

It s a bit old but still does the job quite nicely for all things drama and theatre

Found bar prices quite expensive but had a good evenings entertainment

The best theatre and performing arts centre in Zimbabwe

Whilst it's apparent that every effort imaginable is made, unfortunately, a lot of maintenance is needed.

An amazing arts hub and venue for theatre perfomances. Reps staff are nice and welcoming. There is good parking space, a nice bar to chill. It was the main venue for Mitambo International Theatre Festival from 08 to 12 October 2019.

Watched a great movie in the theatre upstairs. Pleasant evening with great company

The oldest theater company in Harare a must if you enjoy live stage shows including music, dance, comedy, plays & musicals.

Membership to the theatre is also available at extremely affordable rates.

Lovely theatre that takes me back to my teenage years working backstage. I recommend to anyone coming to watch a show that they park in the free secure car park at the back.

A Place where stars are made.
Thats our Theatre of dreams.

Reps theatre has been going for years! They put on excellent shows which r sadly not always supported well and they need the support to keep the place running! I gave 3 stars because the inside is looking shabby and worn down - but they need money to get everything fixed/repaired and it's the same old vicious circle thing....

Very good live show by the talented Samantha Tirivacho.

Home coming comedy show was very funny and entertaining.. reps how ever needs to have more ventilation it was hot and stuffy in the theater

congratulations to REPS! You keep our culture alive!! Thank you

Good place if you are in the mood for a live theatre

Best place
For live theater

We saw the queen of rock Tina Turner tribute show. Amazing

Drinks are crazy. For whiskey, the cheapest is 4, rest are 6. 350ml soda is $2. With again is crazy. Karaoke is awesome though.

Good live shows - musicals, dance, comedies, Broadway, religious - the works. Check what's booking every week or ask to be on the mailing list, you just might find your favourite show on the line up.

Lovely Theatre with lots of parking and security available

Nostalgia...always great shows and experience....maybe control peoples kids at interval who scream atound like hooliga s jumping over chairs...an idea for the ushers.

Amazed at the quality of productions in such a difficult economic environment

I enjoy Reps for the musicals and plays. Non-members may use their ticket on the night to buy a drink from the bar if desired.

I always enjoy myself when I come to performances here. And you can now buy tickets online! Extra bonus!

Good venue, helpful staff, good acoustics and lighting

Great place for a family friendly Theater experience! Also a great space to host your own productions. We enjoyed our experience with Pj and the team when we showed our production Bongile We Are...

Excellent talent but the theater needs a bit of TLC

Mostly very good productions. All amateur producers, directors, actors and crew who perform from their love of theatre. REPS has been running for many decades and has produced over 700 plays. Often make use of newcomers who wish to try their hand on stage. Volunteers are always welcome.

It was an amazing experience with Pinocchio and friends Semolina you are the best. I recommend this show for all with kids it's a must watch you will not regret. #fillupREPS

Always a pleasure to be entertained and know they'll accommodate, even the physically challenged

A wonderful piece of Christmas tradition. The Santa Panto is great fun in the best of Pantomime theatre..treat yourself !

The place of my childhood- always hosts high quality shows both local and international, recreational and professional. If you're looking for something cultural to do, check this little theater out.

Great theatre! The seats now need some work however...

They put on good shows and staff are helpful and friendly. However finances allowing the theatre will need an upgrade. Always happy to go there for a performance.

A brilliant theatre with so much potential. If only an investment could be made to support drama and the arts in this country.

We saw two films at REPS as part of the Harare Film Club - The Nutcracker ballet with Nureyev and Merle Parke, followed by To Kill a Mockingbird Bird, a film about racism in the American Deep South. Good venue, interesting films with a good introduction.

Watched a world class production of the Lion King on par with Capitol Theatre, Sydney

Watched an 80s show and it was my best live show of the year well done REPS
