About

Her Majesty's is one of Australia's most significant historic theatres, and has operated as a live performance venue for the Ballarat community since 1875. The Theatre maintains an Archive, which documents the history of the building and performing arts in the Ballarat region.

Our collection

The bulk of Theatre's Archive has been generated since 1987, when the Theatre was acquired by the City of Ballaarat. The Theatre has collected a small but significant collectioj of material relating to its history prior to that date, and in addition, has gathered information to assist in researching the history of performing arts in the Ballarat region.
