Civic Theatre changes name

The Civic Theatre has become, simply, the Joburg Theatre.

CEO Bernard Jay explains: “We thought it was time to renovate and refresh The Johannesburg Civic Theatre by reflecting today’s image”, says. "With the new branding, the building has become Joburg Theatre.

“It’s time to give ourselves a new, more accessible brand. The word ‘Civic’, in theatre terminology, is from another era. Johannesburg has moved into the 21st Century with its new logo identity as Joburg. We wanted the city’s theatre to move along with the city.”
