Both theatres here are fabulous spaces . The larger theatre usually showing bigger shows that are travelling around the country . Every year the Sydney Theatre Co. visits as does the Bangarra Dance company .We are so lucky to have such a fantastic facility here in the Illawarra . International acts regularly perform as well . IPAC also strongly supports the local theatre scene mentoring people in all aspects of theatre craft . I have been to dress rehearsals for a gold coin donation. Season tickets are very reasonable and much cheaper than Sydney . I have friends who are theatre lovers and they come down from Sydney , because it is easier than battling the Sydney traffic they love the theatre , and really enjoy the relaxed vibe . There is a bar and cafe and sometimes live music. The best way to know what is going on is to become friends of the IPAC you will get emailed about what's happening and there are sometimes early bird discounts. The annual Treasures From The Vault is always a cutting edge cabaret style show featuring some of our talented youth. Parking is usually available within walking distance , but arrive a bit earlier to soak up the vibe , have a drink and a quick nibble .

IPAC has a wide variety of shows. Their bar prices are more than reasonable. Chairs are comfy and staff are lovely.
