The Queen’s Theatre, later known as the Royal Victoria Theatre, is a building of national heritage significance being the oldest purpose-built theatre remaining on mainland Australia. The survival of approximately half of the original 1840 above-ground structure is remarkable, which is complemented by significant below-ground remains also surviving. The Queen’s Theatre has had a colourful history and provides a fascinating insight into the historical development of Adelaide in both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
