The Chemainus Festival Theatre opened the doors of its $4.0 million facility in 1993 with the aim of presenting quality live-theatre suitable for the entire family. During its first season the 274-seat theatre attracted 14,000 patrons but now draws over 70,000 annually from all over Vancouver Island, Greater Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest. With over 150 artists and staff, the theatre has presented almost 60 productions including 17 new scripts since its opening.
The non-profit Chemainus Theatre Foundation, the governing body of the theatre, enhancing the range and number of its productions, plans call for attracting a regular audience from yet a wider geographic area.
The Front Desk Staff of the Hotel will be pleased to assist you in booking your Theater Tickets for present or future productions.
