Beersheba Theater, Performance center in Beersheba, Israel.

Beersheba Theater is a performing arts venue in the center of Beersheba, Israel, with two auditoriums of different sizes. The larger hall hosts theater productions and concerts for big audiences, while the smaller one is used for more intimate shows and experimental work.

The Beersheba Theater was founded in 1973, during Eliyahu Nawi's tenure as mayor, on the initiative of deputy mayor Bentz Carmel and with actresses Naomi Blumenthal and Margalit Stander. After two plays, Geri Bilu was appointed director in 1973 and led it for eight years as a repertoire theater. In 2008 it moved into the Performing Arts Center designed by architect Salo Hershman.

The Beersheba Theater is the largest performance venue in the Negev region, drawing audiences from across the desert south. People often gather in the lobby before and after shows, making it a social meeting point as much as a place for watching performances.

The venue is in central Beersheba and is easy to reach by public transport or on foot from the city center. Booking in advance is a good idea, especially for popular productions, as the main hall fills up quickly.

In its first seasons the theater required its actors to live in Beersheba to perform there, and by 1977 it had 3,000 subscribers plus 5,000 local high-school students watching plays free of charge. Its first production was a translated French comedy, "When Will You Marry My Wife?", directed by Theodore Toma.
