The Museum of Performing Arts is home to the heritage and stories of His Majesty's Theatre and Western Australia's rich performing arts history.
The Museum of Performing Arts (MOPA) features more than 40,000 online catalogued items of theatre memorabilia, detailing the rich and exciting history of His Majesty's, collected by the theatre's historian, Ivan King OAM.
