Western Edge Theatre - Nanaimo's professional theatre with a community feel

Nanaimo's professional theatre with a community feel

The website and social network of Western Edge Theatre, located in Nanaimo, BC, Canada

Not your ordinary website!

Western Edge Theatre's website is also a gathering place! You can get information about our shows and buy your tickets here, just as you always have. But you can also interact with Western Edge artists and audience members, discuss the plays, or blog your thoughts about theatre and other matters of cultural note. We'll also continue to upload pictures and video of the shows, and add more goodies as the season continues.

Just want to observe? That's fine -- keep visiting as you would any other website; you don't need to do anything special. If you'd like to have your own page on the site, just use the Sign Up box in the upper-right corner. It's free, and you'll also be able to use our events page to let everyone know about your own artistic projects.

See you here!
