Studio Theatre

The University of Alberta's very own theatre company.


Studio Theatre in The Timms Centre is Drama's laboratory and the Studio Season is simultaneously a site for research, teaching, entertainment, and innovation. Each season brings together a rare combination of artists interacting to create five unique live theatre experiences.

Studio Theatre features the graduating BFA Acting class ensemble in four shows over the year. These productions represent the culmination of their training. Students from the technical and stage management programs work on all five plays, taking advantage of the exceptional teaching opportunities the season provides.

Studio Theatre is a developing ground for the Department's MFA students and serves to introduce them to the larger Edmonton community. For Drama's talented faculty, the season offers rich research opportunities. The department also engages the most significant theatre artists in the country to teach and direct our students. This unique mix of professionals, faculty, and students are part of what makes any season of Studio special.

All performances take place at The Timms Centre for the Arts (112 Street & 87 Avenue) one of the most comfortable, intimate theatres in Edmonton.
