Coasters Musical Theatre is located at 15 Hinemoa Street, Paraparaumu, 'just across the railway line'. The property was purchased from the KCDC who used the building as the Community Centre for many years. It was in need of much refurbishing, and with considerable business and community assistance, the property was turned into a fine clubrooms, Theatrette, Costume Hire, and storage facility. Originally the Post Office and Postmaster's residence and subsequently the telephone exchange, construction dates back to the 1920s. Coasters moved into Number 15 on June 4th 1996, and in 1998 the opportunity arose to purchase the property next door at 17 Hinemoa Street, formerly an upholstery workshop. Much of our set construction is manufactured and housed there. In addition to the busy Costume Hire shop, Number 15 regularly sees the performing on stage of our Cabaret Musicals which have proven very popular. Sixty patrons are comfortably seated and our BYO licence allows for a very pleasant social evening.
