About the Theatre

The Victoria Playhouse, an integral part of Island artistic life, is a vibrant centre of creativity, inspiring imagination, stronger communities and love of live performance.


A Brief History

The Victoria Playhouse Inc., located in the beautiful village of Victoria by the Sea, Prince Edward Island, was formed in 1981, when residents voted to encourage the production of live theatre in their community hall. It was recognized the presence of the theatre contributed to the quality of life and the social and economic vitality of the community.

The Victoria Playhouse Inc. is a registered not-for-profit organization and is overseen by a Board of Directors. The day-to-day operations are managed by the Executive Director and the General Manager. The company has produced thirty-eight seasons of live theatre and performance events emphasizing contemporary Canadian plays and music. On average the Playhouse presents over seventy performances a year and during the peak season (July through September) operates seven days a week.

The historic Victoria Hall, located at the exact centre of the village is home to the Victoria Playhouse Inc. The building was constructed between 1912-1915 and is widely known for its beautiful, intimate interior and excellent acoustics.  In 2007 the Hall was designated a ‘Historic Place’ on the Canadian Register of Historic Places. The Hall has been at the heart of the community for over one hundred years and continues to bring people together, from near and far, to share in the magic of live performance.
