[[Fillis's Amphitheatre]] was a permanent building in Johannesburg established by circus owner [[Frank Fillis]] in 1889, to specialise in ourdoor performances and spectacles.

Among the works put on were a reconstruction of the Niagara Falls, ''[[Dick Turpin’s ride to York]]'' and ''[[Major Wilson’s Last Stand]]''.

These were also staged at another amphitheatre, opened in 1896 in Cape Town, alongside the Pier, at the bottom end of Adderley Street.
