Maynardville Open-Air Theatre, Open-air theatre in Wynberg, South Africa.

The Maynardville Open-Air Theatre features 720 seats within Maynardville Park, surrounded by trees and gardens in the Cape Town suburb of Wynberg.

The theatre opened on December 1, 1950, after philanthropist Margaret Molteno and community members transformed the former Maynard estate into a performance venue.

The venue maintains a strong tradition of Shakespeare productions, with annual performances that bring classical theatre to South African audiences.

The theatre operates during summer months, presenting theatrical shows, orchestral concerts, and dance performances in an outdoor setting from January through March.

The Technical Theatre Arts Development Programme at Maynardville provides professional training for recent graduates in performing arts through hands-on experience.
