Varscona Theatre

This beautiful and intimate 200-seat theatre in the Old Strathcona neighborhood houses performances by local theatre groups year-round. Out of a renovated fire hall, the Varscona Theatre remains one of North America’s most important arts incubators: a site for imagination, experimentation and entrepreneurial energy, all year round. As an artist-run space, the Varscona is home to three resident theatre companies, which employ some of the best stage professionals in Canada. From twisted comedies thick with wit, to riveting dramas replete with character, each performance serves up a one-of-a-kind, unforgettable experience.
