About us
Located in Braamfontein, Wits Great Hall at Wits University which is also managed by the Performing Arts Administration seats up to 1035, has a rich heritage that dates back to the world premiere of the SA musical, King Kong and beyond. In 1993 we hosted the St. Petersburg Ballet Company. In 1979 the Great Hall was refurbished - it was given a new acoustic treatment, an inner stage and a wide forestage with an hydraulic orchestra lift. For many decades the Johannesburg Musical Society has presented its splendid recitals, featuring the best artists from this country and all over the world, here.
