The Baxter Theatre is one of the main theatre venues in Cape Town and hosts plenty of plays, musicals, live music, comedy festivals, etc. The theatre complex is in Rondebosch and is part of the University of Cape Town.
The centre consists of several venues - the main theatre seats 666, the concert hall seats 638 and the smaller Sanlam Studio Theatre seats 172. There is also a small restaurant in the Baxter theatre complex which is usually open and operating during performances.
Check out the website to see detailed information on what is currently showing at the Baxter. Tickets can be purchased directly from the Baxter or through Computicket online.
The venue itself is large and distinctive - the architecture betrays the 1970s origins of the building. That said, the actual theatres are good venues and well run.
