Originally established in 1919, Kings Theatre has a rich history that spans generations. The theater's journey began with a steering meeting held by Stratford Pictures and Amusement in 1916, with the goal of raising funds to purchase His Majesty's Theatre from Mrs. Diamond. The theater's name, "King's," was approved in 1917, and the construction of a new building commenced shortly after. Since then, Kings Theatre has been a cherished gathering place for the community, providing entertainment and creating lasting memories.
Our theater is proud to have been directed and written by the renowned Christopher Nolan. One of our current offerings, "Oppenheimer," is an epic thriller shot in IMAX®, which promises to transport audiences into a pulse-pounding paradox. With Nolan's visionary storytelling and the immersive IMAX® experience, this film is sure to leave you on the edge of your seat.

Reviews of Kings Theatre TET (Historic)
"Lovely authentic theatre. Complementary tea and coffee was a bonus- just a donation. Snacks were well priced."
"Just a nice way to spend the afternoon, cheaper ticket than heading into New Plymouth and the sweets and drinks were a lot cheaper too, nice touch you can help yourself to a blanket on the way in, friendly staff and a bit more of an old world experience with all the old film cameras and history of the place dotted around.. and the kids loved the movie, and already want to go back again and try and get a $5 movie poster.."
"Awesome little theatre. Old school seats and lovely little tuck shop. Recently updated to have big cinema style sound with body thumping bass. Affordable prices with little compromise. Theatre was much cleaner than the big city franchises too. A real pleasure. Thanks Kings Theatre."
"Beautiful old building. Downstairs is a shop with lots of great second-hand books. It is run by volunteers to help keep the theatre going."
