Kroonstad Civic Centre Complex
The Kroonstad Civic Centre Complex is a multipurpose venue in Kroonstad in the Free State.
The complex
A modern and all-inclusive complex opened in 1976, it consists of the Kroonstad Theatre (also called the Kroonstad Civic Theatre), a performance venue with seating accommodation for 685 people, a banquet hall for up to 500 and an entertainment and conference venue which can seat 40 attendees. The closely adjacent municipal offices and public library provide both an auditorium and the Sarel Cilliers Museum, which inherently form part of the Civic Centre.
Performances
The first official performance in the theatre was on June 11 1976, when they played Ou bokke en groen blare ("Old goats and green leaves" by Louis de Villiers).
Later used by the state funded PACOFS for their touring productions.
