South African State Theatre - The huge State Theatre complex in Church Street in Pretoria / Tshwane, with its five theatres and huge public square, opened in 1981 as a non-profit, government funded company famous for lavish productions that saw overseas opera singers and ballet dancers grace the huge main stage alongside a permanent opera ensemble and chorus, ballet company, dance company, drama company, and all the departments necessary to support a working theatre. Today the State Theatre continues to host a variety of blockbuster shows and local talent, but not before a rather embarrassing mothballing in 2000, due to a loss of millions of rands in an investment scam, and with it, the loss of hundreds of jobs.
