About us

The Coffs Harbour Musical Comedy Company is one of the longest-running arts associations in the region, having originally been founded in 1978. The original 15 founding members came from all walks of life, united by a love of musical theatre.

In 1978 Coffs Harbour High School Music Teacher Le-An Wilson, and Wendy Smith, collaborated on the High School Production of Calamity Jane - then went on to form the Coffs Harbour Musical Comedy Company.

​Our first production was OKLAHOMA performed at the Jetty Theatre for one week, then St. Augustine Hall for the second week, as the theatre was used at that time to screen movies. 
The second production was SOUTH PACIFIC at the newly completed Coffs Harbour High School Auditorium - an enormous cast that would not fit on the Jetty Theatre stage.

Then the lease on the Jetty Theatre for movies expired, and the theatre was considered for development by the Town Council. Moves were made by a small group of interested people to have the Jetty Theatre Heritage listed and retained for live performances by a management committee.

The Jetty Memorial theatre is now a wonderfully restored and maintained vintage playhouse, which hosts a wide variety of productions from both touring professional and other local theatre groups, and enjoys strong support from the community in Coffs Harbour.

We now formally hire the theatre for the duration of our shows, and we hope to be able to continue this long-lasting and mutually beneficial association.

Since those early days, the company has grown considerably and now has over 150 talented members from all walks of life. The aim of the company is to fund varied productions which will showcase the abundance of talent, both young and old, within the Coffs Harbour region.

The company encourages anyone interested in theatre to join and participate. Auditions are always well-advertised and open to all, and besides on-stage roles, there are also many behind the scenes jobs such as set-building, costuming, backstage, front of house, lighting and sound, and directing, all of which are vitally important to the production of any stage show, and without which the show simply couldn't go on.

CHMCC has a strong commitment to providing top-quality entertainment for the local community at a reasonable price, and the popularity of our many productions is testament to our success. Click on past productions to see just some of them.
