A landmark in downtown St. John's, the spectacular marquis sign on this recently renovated historic theater can't be missed. Its events lineup includes live music, stand-up comedy, musical theater, and original stage plays. Pop in during daytime hours to enjoy a hot beverage or cocktail at the Theatre Hill Bar + Café.
A main theater with just under 1,000 seats is the focal point of this center, which also houses the St. John's Public Library. It is the site of musical and theatrical events from September through June.
Known locally simply as The Hall, this historic building was constructed in the 1920s and served as the headquarters of the Longshoremen's Protective Union. In recent decades, it has been established as an innovative theater housing the Resource Centre for the Arts Theatre Company (RCAT). It showcases professional main-stage and experimental second-space productions year-round. This theater and RCAT have been the launching pad for the province's most successful theatrical exports.
