I booked a ticket for a play the day before purely for experience. I loved it. The play was in Hindi and although I couldn't understand what was being said, I could make out some words and via the actions of the performers. Lovely quaint theatre. Really pretty at night with the lights on. Small. Very hip. There appears to be two auditoriums. I don't think my play was in the main one. Seating is not allocated. However, the area was very small and almost like a room. The play was only 55 minutes. There were benches on the side but I sat on the floor out of respect for elder people who probably needed to sit more. 55 minutes on the floor was fine. Any longer and I would have struggled. I was one of the first in as I came early so managed to grab a front row view which was brilliant. I think if you are sitting on the floor in other rows, you may not have that good a view. Go early. You need to take your shoes off before entering. The play started maybe 5 minutes late. You cannot photograph or video. Located in Juhu. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a different experience in Mumbai. It is easy to book a ticket online. You don't need to dress up.

Was in Mumbai for work and had some time in the evening. Prithvi Theatre was on my wishlist for long time. There was an evening show so decided to visit. This is a legendry theatre and it has the same vibe. There were good number of people for the play, some were foreigners as well. The show started right on time, as per the tradition.
Overall, a fantastic experience.

Allow at least 15 mins for people to enter after the show starts. We pay for the play and they don’t even allow you to enter if you’re 5 mins late, but allow people to go to the washroom in a 1.5 hours play? Ridiculous. So we have to wait outside for so long with no place to sit, and we see people going in and out throughout the play to use the washroom, but we can’t even go in and sit in our seats if we are 5-10 mins late. Some logic here!

Though we reached 15 minutes late , they did not allow late entry and strictly not allowing it to exchange with next show .it was delay on our part because of traffic jam but there is no consideration and human element to situation . I can not review the show but surely experience of visiting theatre was bad.

If a tourist in Mumbai and having ample time in the city then a mandatory visit to Prithvi Theatre is a must do activity.A small cost theatre having a seating capacity of 200 + viewing a concert in this theatre is akin to being a part of the play as the stage is in close proximity to the viewing audience unlike large auditoriums.The theater also has a excellent outdoor cafe that is a watering hole of wannabe actors, established actors as well as common theatre audience.Please book your tickets online in advance if wanting to view a popular play as accomodation is less due to small capacity of this iconic cute homely theatre.A landmark of Mumbai's cultural scene.Ahoy !

We were keen to watch a play while in Mumbai. So when we saw a comedy play advertised we jumped at the chance and booked our tickets. Staying at Nariman Point meant a long drive on New Years Eve all the way to Juhu. We had been warned that you do not get allocated seat numbers so get there early. The drive was nearly ninety minutes and when we got there there was already a long queue.
We joined in and after some time the doors opened and we slowly made our way in. The theatre is small and seating is circular and such that it's up-close to the performance stage. We were lucky to see some empty space on the benches at the far end and we rushed over. Seats are usually sold out as most of the plays/performances are popular. Within minutes the theatre was packed. After a few minutes the play started. It was funny and a real experience. All in all well worth it. The journey back to Nariman Point at about midnight with new years celebrations in full swing was quite something.
There is a cafe outside which seems to be the hang out place to be seen. It was packed with young people. They have a nice line in parathas and shakes. Give them a try if you can find a space to sit.
