The Theatre is a non profit organisation and is heavily dependent on the generous funding donations provided by the Taranaki Electricity Trust.
It is administered by a committee of trustees and a group of more than 30 enthusiastic volunteers who are doing their utmost to keep the Kings Theatre doors open and provide a varied theatre experience to the community.
