Totem Theatre

Not open to the public unless a play is on - the little local theatre, heritage listed building put up during World War II to entertain the troops after they retreated from Darwin because of the Japanese bombing. Small local theatre groups put on productions on a semi-regular basis; ask at Dymocks if there are any tickets. Theatre on a shoestring budget!
