For over a century, Diamond Head Theatre has been a place of inspiration for our community. Through your support, these beautiful moments of joy can continue.
Nearly 500 theatergoers connected in a single moment, all beating with the same heart. That is the joy of Diamond Head Theatre. To hear love expressed in a soliloquy. To feel hope wrapped in a song. To be transported to faraway places. To be moved to tears. To share in someone else’s journey. To be reminded – we are all human.

Our vision for a new performing arts campus continues
Before WWII, our theatre was built in 1933 as Fort Ruger USO movie theater. It has served admirably. Yet, given its age, renovating it would cost more than rebuilding it. And so we did. In January 2023, our vision became a reality when we celebrated the opening of our new theatre. Our work to raise funds continues with our second phase to redevelop the Theatrical Arts Building.
PHASE II: THEATRICAL ARTS BUILDING
LET THE
SHOW
BEGIN
We are Hawaii’s choice for great theatre.
Called “The Broadway of the Pacific,” Diamond Head Theatre presents six full-scale productions each year, most of which cannot be staged anywhere else in Hawaii. Community programs serve keiki to kupuna all year round. More than 1 million people have experienced our live performances, finding comfort and wonder in stories that bring us together.
