A B O U T

The New Curtain Theatre company is a not for profit professional theatre company in the Clarenville area that mandates itself to the production and promotion of contemporary and classical works of theatre with an emphasis on Canadian works. Since its inception in 2005 the company has produced over 15 works of theatre, a number of festivals including the CROSS-HANDED FESTIVAL and SHAKESPEARE ON THE SLOPES. In addition it also produces a Winter Coffee House Series during the ski season as well as a youth and adult acting studio series and a Young Company as well as various community outreach projects.

 

​New Curtain Theatre began in 2005 as the brain child of former resident Geoff Adams who was working in the industry in Vancouver at the time and sold everything up to return to the province to give birth to this element that he say as being noticeably absent from the region as a year round amenity and element in the rural fabric. With the financial support of the resident population, some arts council funding and self financing the first few shows, New Curtain Theatre has grown to become a major player in the provinces theatre industry.

 

It's beginning production in 2006 was BRILLIANT TRACES by Cindy Lou Johnson was presented at the Twins Cinemas in Clarenville and from there on shows were mounted wherever a space was available until moving to the Middle Chalet at the base fo the White Hills Ski Hill. This facility has been home now since summer 2007 and is now known as The Loft Theatre.
